For my initial entry into the blogosphere, I have to confess that I am really not crazy about blogging. Maybe this is because at my ripe old age, I am increasingly resistant to change. Posting my thoughts on things and then hoping that people find me interesting enough to keep checking in seems like an invitation to humiliation. Then again, the web log format has become a major way in which people, particularly young people, circulate ideas. At some level it even seems to serve the function of critical reading for many.My reticence to blog is overcome by the realization that it can be a major vehicle for edifying the saints, as well as helping me to sharpen my own mind and develop my own thinking through writing.
That said, I’m pretty excited to see how this works out. I jhope that this becomes a way for readers to put theology and current events togther on a regular basis. I hope that it becaomes a place to see who’s thinking and who isn’t. If it works out great, then praise God. If it bombs, blame the Irish Calvinist.
More to come.
