Colic Blog: A Blog is Born
Dec 8th, 2007 by Gary Chupik
I told myself I’d never blog. I promised myself. I contracted with me, myself, and I. Why? It’s easy to get comatosed by the countless ramblings of people with too much time on their hands (note: subtle Styx reference), or people who incessantly express their every thought ad nauseum. In my previous state of assurance, the only exception was if monetary profit could be traced back to the musings of a blogger. But, I think I’ve changed. I’ve been delivered. I see the light. I blog. I’m not going to cry about it anymore.
Why the conversion? Because I see what I’ve missed by not recording the events of my life and my journey as a church planter. And, I’ve been negligent in giving God public glory for what he’s done in my life and how far he has brought me and Emmaus Church. He deserves both the glory and the blame!
So, here it is…in true fashion….my first blog. Did I write anything that would make anyone want to come back? Probably not, but, hopefully I’ll deliver something of value that will honor God in the blog entries to come. After all, at best, my story is a subset to his story.
