So What Now?

As incredible as it seems to me, I have been keeping this blog consistently for almost a month and a half. That may not seem a huge deal to you, but it’s incredible for me. I know this blog is what God wants me to do. I feel He’s only just getting started with it.

However, I feel as though I’ve hit a wall. I don’t know what I should be writing about. I have all these ideas, but I don’t know what my readers enjoy. I don’t feel like I’m exactly fulfilling God’s intention for the blog.

Allow me to speak what I had envisioned. I envisioned a place where people could come and learn, be challenged, and enjoy. A place to make them laugh and think. A place where they could find community and acceptance. A place where they would see Jesus as He is, not as so many think and believe Him to be. I wanted to write things people would WANT to read.

My eventual hope was to get a variety of people to contribute. The reasons for this were varied, but these are the main: 1) More viewpoints could be explored, 2) Readership would expand, 3) An avenue for others to express themselves, and 4) To take the burden off of me to have to write every night. I am very grateful for the contributions my friend Dan Jackson has been giving. I love reading what Dan has to say. My hope was to turn this into an almost forum-like setting. And maybe, just maybe, by some God-ordained miracle, to make a stand and do something to change the world.

Lofty goals, I know. But that’s what I dream. And I don’t really know if I’m accomplishing any of them.

This is where you come in. I need your feedback. Any writer will tell you it’s extremely frustrating to write and never really know how or even if your message is being perceived. I am blessed to know that there are a few of you out there that read faithfully and tell me verbally your comments. I value that greatly! But I need to know from the majority.

There have been thirty-eight posts made thus far covering a variety of subjects. There have been two contributors: myself and Dan. So tell us…what do you enjoy? What are you not enjoying? What’s some things you’d like to see more/less of? What kind of posts would you be more apt to share with your friends (there are a variety of share options at the end of each post!)? Does the posting time (6am) work?

I am in need of your feedback. Please. I’m not going to lie; it gets exhausting writing night after night, not really knowing if the time you’re taking is really making a difference. A little help would go a long ways. You don’t have to be a member of anything to comment below.

Thank you for sticking with me! I look forward to what you all are going to offer.
