The time has come, I have decided, to create my own blog and get some of my writing out into the world. My main goal as a writer is to proclaim the truth of God’s love and mighty deeds as I understand them. I believe His greatest project was to send His Son to live a perfect life, carry the sins of all humanity to the Cross, and bridge the gulf between us and Him.
I have a rather iconoclastic view of organized religion and the Church. I also prefer to speak truth – however impolitely. I'm sorry if this offends. Jeremiah and Elijah were also offensive to those who wouldn't listen to God's words through them.
Spot is the young male cat who loves to rub his head against my forearm as I try to type. I've decided to employ him as a straight man of sorts or maybe as a contrary commentator on things I've written.
Welcome to the club. I have two problems with writing blogs: discipline and sense of audience. I can never remember to write things when I'm busy, so the few audience members I do have tend to leak away. And I'm never too sure who I'm writing to or why I'm doing it. (I solved the latter by just imagining that I'm writing to my daughter.)
