I wanted to extend to you an apology for doing what most amateur blog writers do... stop blogging. But let's not pretend that you really missed it. And no, I'm not begging for compliments. But this is why I am starting to post again.
Why do I blog?
I'm not 100 percent sure, but I'm sure you have a few ideas of your own. Stroking my own ego? I love a little rant every once in awhile? Sure. It's probably a mix of a lot of things. I honestly need an outlet for what's going on in my head. I would love for you to read along, but this is more for me. One of my favorite parts of this blog is looking back at 2008 when I first started.... yikes. Don't do that.
What will you blog about?
Me. The things that spark my interest. Not that I am what is exciting but what other source do I have to draw from? I'm a religion major at Baylor University, so a good chunk of the post will be theological in nature. I'll spare you the stuff that is boring. A friend said to me, that the only theology that is worth doing is pastoral theology. Pastoral theology meaning exploring certain truths about God that will be of service to the people of God, the Church.
Reviews of books that I am reading. Funny videos... The works.
Why the name, "A Place for Boldness"?
In a video, this. (when I do that, click on the word)
In a age of timidness, a fear of knowing/believing what your saying, social pressure not to offend, we must not be afraid to proclaim the Gospel. If you're not a place where you can handle that, that's fine. I would still love your feedback and discussion. Yes indeed, I have greatly missed the mark but I have found grace.
God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong (sin boldly), but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world. - Martin Luther
Thanks for reading.
