I Am Here, Just Not As You Expect…
Life. It has a way of constantly changing the rules on a person. Once you think that you’ve figured out a routine, or that you’re going to do things a specific way, things don’t go that way.
I believe that God gets a chuckle out of our planning and strategy.
So, I’ve been AWOL from this blog for a week, however, I have not been silent—so to catch you up to date, here’s what happened last week that I wrote around the web (just not here) and I’d love your input on some of it!
Midnight Musings
Last week was MM’s moment to shine. I actually had a few musings that I was really proud of, but no one wanted to talk about them!
It all started with Easter, and Candy Chocolate Crosses. I was having a hard time rationalizing making something killed my Savior into something sweet. I mean, if it were bitter, and went down sweet that’d be something. From there I mused on how a Christian who believes that the Lord will return should prepare for it in The End Times Paradox. I wrapped up the four posts with one talking about Future Generation’s Perspective and Why AI?
This week, I’m musing over smoking, and what the Christian believes about it. If you have something that you’d like to muse on over there—let me know!
Is This Modest
ITM had a big week this week—yesterday we had 100 readers on our RSS feed badge, but that was only one of the big things to happen.
Eliza Magazine contacted me earlier this month and asked if I’d giveaway a couple of subscriptions—naturally I jumped at the chance to advertise a modest magazine, but I didn’t know how crazy the number of entries I’d get. As of this writing there are 71 comments (though two of them are mine, clarifying rules), and the contest isn’t over until this Wednesday. If you would like a FREE subscription to Eliza Magazine, go on over to Is This Modest and enter the Eliza Giveaway!
The other article I wrote was a long one, talking about 7 Things You Don’t Want in a Modest Formal—complete with illustrations. It kinda wraps up the whole modesty thing in one post as far as what is and is not modest.
This Week
Hopefully I’ll get into a good routine this week—I’m off to a good start today (lots of posts written by me go live today so watch the little MInTheGap Network widget!), and hopefully we’ll find a regular time and get some consistency back up. Thanks for bearing with me, and back to the culture and political wars soon!

As always, Min, you know I miss the cultural and political posts, but I totally understand how life gets in the way. Can’t wait to have you back!

You gotta do what you gotta do. Anytime you feel like blowing steam, I’ll be happy to blow it right back.
