More writing, fewer random thoughts
What does this mean? Basically I'm going to be writing fewer small comment posts and more actual articles. I've got four series planned out right now.
First, most readers should be familiar with the Take a Stand articles, where I define a position and (sometimes feebly) attempt to defend it. I've tried to make this weekly in the past, but have been lazy. I'm going to make this attempt again. The Take a Stand articles will be posted on Fridays.
The next series I'm going to introduce is called Christ and Culture. This set of articles can involve politics, education, world events, anything and everything. I'm going to try and analyze what takes place in our society and compare that to a Christian worldview. This will also be weekly, publishing on Mondays.
Critical Mass is going to be an irregular series of movie and DVD reviews. You may have already seen my recent review of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, which was the first in this series. I'm writing these mainly for the Youth Ministry Exchange, but I'm going to post them here as well. I'll have reviews in the coming months for Ratatouille and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, plus there may be some others as well.
I'll throw in some Music and Meaning posts every once in a while, but I'll have to find something that captures my imagination that isn't Delirious?. I'm sure everyone is tired of hearing about them. I can't help it.
Finally, my newest series is something that was generated last Sunday at church. I'll have more details on this tomorrow with an introduction article to the series, plus a timeline of what it's going to cover. This is going to be a single set of articles that will run every two weeks until the end of January. These articles will be titled Worship Exodus, and if you want to know more, you'll have to read tomorrow.
So, that's the scoop. Sounds like a lot of work, and it will be. I'm going to try and turn this site more towards a writing oriented site, though there will still be plenty of family stuff on here too. I'm happy to take article ideas from anyone for the Take a Stand and Christ and Culture series'. I've got articles queued up for the next four weeks, but am always looking for good ideas.
