A recent article in Christianity Today (see title link above) spoke of the number of people who have quit blogging after their initial zealous attempts. When I began this blog, a friend of mine warned me that he was having a hard time keeping up with his.
I remember reading something about blogs as feeding our narcissistic tendencies toward endless autobiography and I think that is an appropriate assessment of what is out there in terms of blogs, myspace and facebook pages. There does come a point of humility, however, when we realize that we don't have all that much interesting to say.
Frankly, I'm undecided about continuing blogging as an expression of ministry. I created three other blogs: one with the hope of posting sermons (which I'm not convinced yet is the best idea), one as a series of reflections on Holy Communion (that I'm woefully behind on), one as a forum for critique and appreciation of the new Evangelical Lutheran Worship hymnal. And then there is this one, which I update far less that I'd like.
So, fellow bloggers and readers, what do you say? [I've modified my settings to allow comments.]
