Carlos's Blogatical

| By Scott McClellan | Found in Communication, The Web | 1 Comment

I really respect the big announcement Carlos made on his blog yesterday. This comment, in particular, resonated with me and much of my recent thought process:

This whole Internet thingy we have here is new.
We don’t know the damage these narcissisticly beautiful tendencies will have on us.

What Carlos is doing takes courage and faith, and I applaud him for it. I hope you do, too. I hope he emerges on the other side of this undertaking a person who “wreaks of Jesus Christ.” I’d like to stink like that, too.

We like using the term Christ-follower these days, but it occurs to me that you’re not a Christ-follower unless you follow Christ. Otherwise, you’re a person who prayed a prayer a long time ago.

Today, take the “blogatical” example to heart and follow Jesus where he’s leading you. If that means you need to stop blogging … stop blogging. If that means you need to start loving … start loving. Do whatever it is you need to do, and do it today.

    I love it…big challenge to me. I think also, the flipside of his sabbatical is that the community around him may get more involved. which is a whole post in and of itself.
