The Challenge

It feels good to be back in a writing mode. My challenge at this point is figuring out what to write about. It was easy before, at CTM, to know what to write. I had a topic pre-defined for me, so I knew the scope of what I should write. By my own doing, I am now here, outside of the so called limitations of CTM and I’m ready to write about something. Anything, really.

I have proven over the years that I can do this, I can pick a topic to write about and communicate my thoughts in a way that people can relate to and understand. As a matter of fact, do you know that the year when I was between churches and between being actively involved in tech ministry, I wrote more and CTM grew more than at any other time. I wasn’t writing about anything I was actually doing, I was writing about ideas that I thought made sense, in the church IT world and I wrote about what I saw others doing.

With that being said, I have a track record of writing about whatever has my attention at the moment, so I have no worries that I can pull this off. I have no objection to writing about things going on in the church IT arena and in fact, I am currently working on some things in that regard and as we move forward, I’ll be sharing more about that. I also intend to write about general tech topics and also some thoughts on leadership, writing, current social media trends and more.

In a general sense, I want to write about things that interest you and encourage discussion, in every way including commenting on this site, on Facebook, on Twitter and any other way. In all honesty, I want this site to become even bigger than CTM.

That burden is me. I have to write. As I do that, I expect you to do your part.

I’m up for the challenge. Are you?
