There’s a couple big time “Christian” bloggers” (“christian” is a lousy adjective but that’s another post) that are giving up their blogs. One for lent and the other indefinitely (he’ll be back).
I applaud them in their conviction to lay aside their blog to pursue Christ more intently and I pray that they find all the grace, love and hope that is theirs in Christ.
In the meantime, now is our chance to jockey for position. 
I take my blog seriously. It’s my little piece of real estate in the shrinking WWW. In fact, I owned “ScottHarris.org” for at least 3 or 4 years before I ever started to use it and don’t tell my family but I own their names as well (you should own yours if it’s still available).
But…I never plan to sell ads or make money off it and I don’t want to be known as a blogger.
I have no desire to be that guy who gets invited to the conference to blog about what the speakers say, whose there and what their wearing.
My focus is making the waves. A difference in people’s lives through local church leadership/multiplication and helping to empower the generation coming behind me.
Should I ever find myself with a platform to influence then I would be honored. But this blog is not my “ticket in” but a “record of”.
The gag has been removed from my blog.
Actually, I have been focusing on some lifestyle adjustments that will help me reach some family, physical, academic and ministerial goals that I’ve set for myself and my blogging rhythm has suffered.
You can’t tell from my lack of posting but I really do take this blog seriously. I love to write and this place helps to hone those skills.
Anyways, I need to work on the rhythm so I can script the rhyme.
(sorry bout that last line)
Just in case your browsing through my archives, I thought I’d let you know that most of the posts with pictures no longer exist (the pictures). That is my only regret about the switch to WordPress. I plan to go through the posts slowing to rebuild the images if I still have them on my hard drive.
I'm the guy who eats his brussels sprouts first. I'd rather finish with what I like, what gives me the most pleasure.
I've found that I read through my blog subscriptions the same way. There are some that I subscribe to just to make sure that every 10 posts I won't miss something good. Then there are a few that I save for last.
For the record the blog that I have found myself saving for last lately is BenArment.com. This guy's posts are short, thought-through, and helpful.
