It’s Been Almost Four Years

It’s been almost four years since my last update of my “About Me” page. In fact, it's been about four years since I read my “About Me” page. I realize some things have changed since I wrote those words. (I’ll make updates right after I finish writing this.) For starters, that version of the page still said I had been married 26 years. We have now enjoyed over 30 years of marriage. A lot of work goes into growing a relationship for 30 years and it has been well worth the effort.

As I read and revised my “About Me” page I realized that it is in a way a map which I have not been following. Yes, like many other men I tend not to pay attention to maps. I guess it’s time to upgrade to GPS and my GPS is telling me I am off course when it comes to my blog and to writing in general. Fortunately it’s never too late to get back on course, not even after 4-8 years.


So where do we go from here? Well…according to my map…or should I now say GPS I will continue with posts about my faith in Jesus Christ. I will also tell you more about me. This blog will continue to be a bit eclectic with posts on various topics. There will also be more posts that answer questions from a biblical point of view. This is a bit of a change in course which hopefully will be fun and informative.


One thing I am working on is consistency. I have not been consistent in my writing. I get things done when there is a deadline (such as with magazine articles) but I tend to fumble the ball on things like this blog or when it comes to the many book ideas I have bouncing around in my head. This year I have made a new commitment to answer God’s call without making excuses.


I do still enjoy writing even though I too often talk myself out of sitting at my computer. It’s time for change and for a true commitment. As I write this I feel a growing excitement about the direction God will take my writing and It’s time to roll up my sleeves and get to work. Thanks for joining me as I move forward and for listening to my ramblings tonight.


It’s time to move forward into 2023 and into new adventures. I will even check my road map…from time to time.
