As I embark on my journey as United Methodist clergy, I am faced with a few questions and decisions.
1) What do I do with this blog? I haven't kept it up while in seminary, despite my intentions when I entered. Does anyone actually read it anyway? What would happen if I turned it into musings on ministry and the daily (weekly, monthly) struggles of being a full-time mom and full-time deacon?
2) As I am charged to connect more with young adults (and teens) in both my roles (at the General Board of Church and Society and at Mount Harmony/Lower Marlboro UMC), should I consider a different form of media - twitter perhaps?
3) Does what I post really matter to people, or is it just fulfilling some narcissistic desire within me? If I want it to matter to others, I need to plan out time on a regular basis to put some deep, theological thought into my posts. Do I really want to do that? Would anyone actually read it if I did?
If you, or someone you know, would be interested in reading a weekly or monthly blog based on things going on in my life and ministry, let me know. If you think tweeting is a better way for people to know what's going on, tell me that too.
