To all who have followed my writing on this blog, thank-you.
But the time has come for me to pull the plug on it. For nearly 4 years I have blogged almost everything – significant and otherwise – that has bounced around in my head for some amount of time. But last week, I made the semi-difficult decision to bring the diary-like babble of The Follower to an end.
However, I am not getting out of bogging altogether…I like writing far too much to stop. So what I’ve done is start a new blog, which I invite anyone and everyone to check out. You’ll find my new blog at Verbata. I set Verbata up for the purpose of focusing exclusively on Biblical interpretation (my own personal guilty pleasure). Within it’s posts you’ll find what basically amounts to a running commentary as I work my way through various books of the Bible. I’m going slow, taking my time. As I study, meditate, contemplate, and blog, I’ll be looking at the grammatical, historical, and cultural issues that help to give a particular text it’s meaning. I see this as a bit of a precursor to actually preaching through a book. So that means this is a place for me to try out my crazy ideas and observations before I actually put them into preaching.
If you’ve been a faithful follower, or even just a casual browser, I invite to jump over to Verbata and get in on the conversation over there. The first post for a while will actually be re-posted from this blog here, but before too long, you’ll start to see some new stuff pop up.
Thanks again for reading along, and I look forward to see y’all at Verbata!
