Hello?

Does this blogsite still work?

I'm kidding but at some point in the past month you may have actually thought that... I know I have.

I sabotaged my own efforts with the set up for this "elemental faith" series of posts that I wanted to write about. Additionally, life accelerated at a mind numbing pace with my own leadership responsibilities, family duties, and the various aspects of ministry in which I serve.

Honestly though, I think the biggest contributing factor to this interlude was my lack of solitude time. I have had no solitude time-- zip, zilch, zero-- none since the beginning of April. This is spiritually unhealthy for me and directly impacts my ability to create artistically or grow significantly in spiritual formation. That doesn't mean that I plunge into darkness, lies, and debauchery but it does mean that I tend to turn inward rather than focus outward.

So, I am still here. I am still chugging along with leading, loving, and serving others. I am still going to continue the conversation about "elemental faith" in the coming weeks.
