Why don't I blog more often?

Why don't I blog more often? That is a good question. Here is my short answer to a very fair question.

1. The primary reason is that each and every week my main writing project is the Sunday morning sermon. In total 15+ hours are spent trying to craft sermons from Biblical texts that will be doxological, edifying, and convicting. I normally don't have time to edit down the sermon manuscripts into helpful blog posts. My primary ministry is to my family and my church family.

2. I also have 2 children under 3 (Evelyn and Jude) with a third baby on the way (due date is Jan 15). Funny story. As i finished writing this blog my daughter brought me a broken glass. "Here dad!" As you well know, trying to be a good father and a loving husband requires lots of time.

3. When i do have spare time I am typically quite tired. Surfing the net, doing home improvement tasks, watching sports with my wife, reading a good book, or something like this normally takes precedence over blogging.

4. These days their are a million blogs out there to read. My personal favorites are Pyromanics and Albertmohler.com Some of these Christian blogs are very helpful and instructive. Plus my readership is quite modest.
