Update on the blogging project for Lent:
I have made a decision on what to do with the blog, and it is based on several things that have happened within the last week or two.
When Amy and I went to Marriage Encounter last weekend, one thing that I brought home with me was a conviction that it wasn't really helping our marriage by blogging after Amy has gone to bed for the night. Sometimes when we get home from an activity late at night, and do things we like or need to do when we get home, there isn't a lot of time left for blogging. This has been especially true in these last two weeks before Easter.
Another reason is that there is a situation in my family which has pretty much put me out of the mood for blogging. I don't want to get deep into personal details, but anyone reading this is invited to pray for my mom, she needs it right now, actually I guess both my parents do.
So - here's what I've decided to do till Easter: I'm going to cut back from a five-day per week to a four-day per week commitment to blogging the Pilgrim's Progress. That roughly translates into blogging every other day. That's going to push the book past Easter, and I'll be wrapping it up near the end of the month. Sorry for anyone wanting to get it read by Easter, if anyone did so, but I'm thinking this will be better for my sanity. Blogging every day this last week has gotten more difficult.
