OK, so where are all my blogs?

OK, there's a lot going down in my
life right now. And I will share it with you, it's just finding the
time. My latest video blog, "Worship: Job's response to testing",
has had so many viewers it's freaking me out a little. I guess I am
trying this new way of living in the Internet age where my life is
an open book. I believe young people want to listen to people that
are not trying to be perfect, but are open and admit they have
hurts and pains too. Right now I have 3 MAJOR tragedies in my life.
My relationships, Winkie, who is the closest I have to a father,
and my business. All 3 are in critical condition. Talk about a "Job
moment".
So I will continue to be more and more open. I believe the enemy hates it. I receive letters from people telling me how much my stories help them. THAT keeps me going. From Lindale, TX, I am touching a small, but global audience of people who in their words, "have found someone real". The reality is, I struggle immensely with sharing certain aspects of my life, because it's invasive. But it's also incredibly freeing. In a culture fostered by the traditional Hebrew way of life though, life was lived not in a community, but in community. That's a subtle difference in print, but a huge difference in reality. In community we don't live in isolation. I will try to do another video blog soon.
