Pre-blogging

Ok, so here’s the deal. As I hope you’ve already figured out, this is a blog. I have no idea why I have a blog because I don’t even like writing, but I have one nonetheless. Basically the thought behind it is that Christ has called those who follow Him to share their lives with one another for the purpose of support and edification. That being said, with the unbelievable abilities to communicate which we have today, I have often wondered why Christians don’t take advantage of them for the cause of Christ and decided that I had no right to speak out because I have done nothing myself. So, this is my attempt to share the highs and lows, strengths and weaknesses, successes and failures of my journey, hence the title, “Life. Growth. Service.”

Service
This is probably what I will be writing about most. Since the purpose of this blog is to promote the evolution of Christians into the image of Christ, most of its contents will center around my experiences in service to Him.

Growth

Closely tied to the service issue, growth deals with the specific lessons learned during the shaping process. Faults, failures, discoveries, and insights all sculpt the image of Christ in us and thus are included here.

Life
Just what it says, this covers it all. A catchall way to include anything about life. A place to talk about the random, absolutely frivolous nothings of everyday life. Anything’s possible.

So enjoy, give me some feedback, and be active as a member of the body. Here goes nothing…
