A wayward blogger returns...

Wow.  I guess I’m not much of a blogger.  My last update/blog was back in September.  Part of the reason is definitely laziness, and, of course, I have other work occupying my time.  I also wonder if anyone has ever read any of these posts.  Writing for legions of fans would be a whole other story.  Powerful incentive, indeed.  Although I real enjoy reading a variety of media and literature, I don’t consider myself to be much of a creative writer.  I feel more comfortable with art.  I’m also a huge fan of videos and I can easily waste the hours away in front of YouTube and other websites.  As I am still learning to use this website, I’d like to see if I can post links within my blog.  So, if you get a moment, you might want to click on a few of these links.  They are mainly just for fun.

http://thebricktestament.com/         This site gives incredible Lego interpretations of Bible stories, including the really weird ones.  This site is pretty funny and definitely strange.

 

http://larknews.com/current-issue/        If you are a fan of “The Onion” and satire in general, you’ll appreciate this site.  It’s essentially humorous, satirical articles for Christians.  Some of it is dead-on.

 

http://www.pcusa.org/msr/           I would advise you all to take some time to look around our denomination’s website now and again.  It’s good to learn about what our denomination is doing in our nation and in the world.  Also, if searching for a mission trip or an opportunity to serve overseas, there are opportunities found on this site.  Myself and many of my friends participated in the PCUSA’s “Young Adult Volunteer” program which has year-long volunteer sites in the US and internationally.  It will be a life-changing year for sure.

 

Secondly, since I have proven to be not a very dedicated blogger, I wonder if anyone out there might like to offer a selection now and then.  The world is yours.  I mean, you have to keep it appropriate and it should probably touch on some dimension of our faith…but if you are like me, I find that my faith life is intimately connected with most parts of our existence, so that leaves many blogging possibilities.  If you are interested, email me and let me know.  And perhaps you might inspire me to write more as well.  In the meantime, I’m at least going to spend more time searching the web for interesting offerings.
