Six Month Sabbatical

I have been considering restarting my blog for some time now. I ceased blogging for several reasons.
1.) The state of my existence had become so restrictive in the last few months. The scope of our ministry opportunities shrunk to the point where I feared any blogging would prove too uninspiring for any readership. Since moving to Virginia and assuming the helm of Crosspoint church, it seems as though the blood is returning to my ministry limbs and my imagination and vision is starting to refire.
2. ) The final stages of our green card application involved Federal background checking. Not knowing how extensive the background checking is, I was concerned that my candid conversation on this blog could might trigger some unnecessary questions in our final interview. Hey, call me paranoid, but if I was the FBI I would check out Facebook etc. It will reveal more that a credit check and spy satellites.
3) I am also wrestling with the question, who am I writing to? Initially my perceived blog readership was my family and South Africans from the AOG and Cape Town ministry environments. Now that we have permanent residence in the U.S. I am completely embracing Americans as our ministry constituency. Now I have to redirect my thoughts and reasoning more towards their frames of reference. I feel the six month sabbatical has allowed me to turn the corner on this issue.

Dunno why it isn't an active link, might because you have to pay to register a link to abc's new feed.

Anyway, the six month sabbatical is over...the blogging journey awaits.
