Blog Connection — Materialism

This will most likely be a weekly part of this blog where I, oddly enough, ask you to go elsewhere to read other’s opinions about differing subjects. If a good post is made somewhere, I definitely want to recognize it.

So much more than a bowl of candy

The World is not Enough

If it looks like a duck

All of these deal with materialism, something that’s been on my mind lately. Why give my views on it though, when I can give you three? Feel free to read these articles, you can post comments here or on the author’s site. Also feel free to post your own articles on this subject or your ways of rejecting materialism in exchange for faith in God. It’s something that everyone wants to talk about, but few act upon it.

Christian Blogs

I’ve spent a good portion of the night surfing through many Christian blogs. I was surprised to find that there are many blogs out there that have set up an online ministry. It seems as though everyone is a Billy Graham as soon as they get a blog. I’ll have to admit after looking back through some of my posts, I am guilty of this sometimes as well. Is this really what the world needs, another minister? Or do they need to relate. I know I am. I’m looking for someone that is going through the same struggles that I am. I’m also looking for someone that’s already been there, so they can guide me to the right path. Where are these blogs? Where are the Christian blogs that make mistakes, sometimes give in to temptation, get angry, and admit they aren’t perfect? How can we build relationships as bloggers, when the platform is the internet equivalent of a podium?

Blogs4God is back

Blogs4God.com is back from the dead and better than ever. Just in time too, as it is in sync with the premiere of my site. It’s goal is to be a semi-definitive list of Christians who blog (like me :))

“— After narrowly escaping a digital death at the hands of spammers, blogs4God has been resurrected with an entirely new format to serve those who live their online life by the question : ‘what would Jesus blog?’ —”

Apparently, day 1 went very well, and with the great setup they have, I’m sure they will have continued success. If you know of any other sites like this one that lists Christian blogs, please let me know.
