I’m enjoying the direction the new blog is going. Forcing myself to tackle an issue or share some bit of life each day has been a terrific exercise in both writing and thinking. And I’ve enjoyed our dialogue, as well. I try to chime in once or twice per blog, but I read every comment. Thanks for your interest. Here is what’s coming up this week:
Monday: The Problem with Black and White Thinking
On Monday I’ll look at the problem of black-and-white thinking and how it stunts intellectual growth. My guess is this post is going to stir up some controversy. We shall see.
Tuesday: The Greatest Impact You May Have May Come Out of Your Pain
On Tuesday I will be talking about the benefit of hard times. This blog will be especially interesting to those who are hurting right now. In this blog I talk about some of the hard things that have happened in my life and what good things have come from them. I truly look at dark seasons different these days.
Wednesday: The Reasons Pastors are Important
I’ve noticed a lot of cynicism about church (and engaged in some in my day) and yet I continue to find the pastors I meet are some of the greatest quality people out there. In this blog, I list ten reasons pastors are important to our lives and our communities.
Thursday: Want to DO SOMETHING for a great cause?
On Thursday I’ll be inviting people to do something very fun and very simple for The Mentoring Project. It’s a national campaign that we even have some celebrities involved in (though that will be revealed in time) so check this one out and join in.
Friday: How I Learned to Like Exercise, and Some Other Things Too
Why not start out the week with some sort of talk about health. I’m not the most healthy person in the world, but I do enjoy a bit of easy exercise nearly every day, and that wasn’t always the case. This will definitely be a lay-man’s guide to getting moving, but at least it’s something. Honestly, though, this blog is really about learning to do things you don’t want to do.
Are there any topics you’d like to hear about? Is there a way to make this blog even better that I am missing?
Again, thanks so much for checking out the blog each week. Talk with you soon…
Sincerely,
Don
