I'm Here

It was thoughtful of you, Nestus, to ask if I was alright and for you Dana to give me Easter greeting.  Yes, I'm fine.  

I think that I've taken a reprieve from writing here for several reasons.  For one, my life is so busy that every time I write here, it is usually a quick typing while in line for coffee or between patients. I never have time to proof-read and sometimes the quality is not very good. I wish I had the luxury to sit at a desk with a cup of coffee and focus on writing a quality piece over 1-2 hours but it just can’t happen.

Also, it seems like everyone has a blog out there and most of them do have the time to do quality work and I wasn’t sure I had a voice that was unique. I am in the middle of a total rewriting of my manuscript after an editor that works with Penguin Books helped me a great deal.  So when I do have a minute to write, I’m working on that (and am quite behind).


I am thinking of coming back.  There must be another voice for out there to let people know, those who are disillusioned with the way evangelicalism is run today, there is a place for honest, thinking Christians.  Time will tell if I’m coming back.

Phew :-) I'm glad you are OK.
There are a few blogs out here that truly mean something to me. Top three will probably be yours, Cerulean Sanctum from Dan Edelen and imonk. Although I follow about 90 blogs, these three stand out in my life.
I do not know why. Perhaps its the hope/light in the struggle that speaks to me. Seeing God through a brother's eyes who does not have all the answers. Perhaps its because I'm an introvert and struggle to write anything about myself and biographical blogs express the feelings I'm feeling and give me the words that I cannot seem to find. And perhaps it is as you say. "a place for honest, thinking Christians." I miss the honest thinking part in all the overload of words.
In any way... I'm glad you are safe and sound and well :-) and will look out for a non-proof-read-post any time you get around to it.
God bless

Hey, glad you're still around. And yes, I deeply hope that there is a place for honest, thinking Christians.

So your book project is still go!

If you're still at your old email address, I'd like to get you up-to-date on what I've been doing along those lines.

I'm glad your'e still around. Your'e honesty hooked me from the first time I read your blog. Typos don't diminish the importance of what you're saying! I relate to the lack of time but look forward to any writing from a kindred spirit. Hope all is well with you
