There is so much noise in our world. So many podcasts, youtube videos, and visual content. Does writing still matter in our world? This blog is my attempt to find out. I have 3 goals with this blog…

The first is to encourage. I view this as a huge priority whenever I preach and communicate. I have a sincere belief that people are coming into a room or even a blog beat up, bruised, and defeated. I think preaching and writing has a way of lifting our eyes up and reminding us that God is God and God is bigger then our problems. My heartfelt prayer is that you will be regularly encouraged by this blog.

The second goal is to challenge. There are times when I believe our culture is leading us down the wrong path. This blog will interact with social norms like anger, judgment, being offended, and even digital media and push back a bit (or a lot) and remind us of the Jesus way.

The final goal is to equip. I am a ministry junkie. I love preaching and ministry and will certainly be writing quite a bit about best practices.

Those are my big goals but you will most certainly hear about my family, Michigan State Athletics, and a few book reviews along the way.

I won’t be updating this on any regular cycle. Some weeks I’ll write a lot and some weeks not so much. I look forward to interacting with you in the comments.

God Bless,

Steve
