Blogging and My Massive Ego

In my mind (...and so therefore it shouldn't be taken seriously...) I find I can't help but link having a blog with having a massive ego - so while you may not be surprised that I've started blogging, I still find myself cringing a little as I write this.

I guess I think that blogging is, by its nature, an act of self-obsession, and I can't help but think that if anyone reads this they'll keep thinking "Who cares?"

I constantly deal with this sort of fear anyway - every week when I'm preparing a preach I often find myself thinking "This is a joke! Me preaching - as if anyone would care what I think!"  (...I'm sure this is probably quite a healthy attitude so please, I'm not fishing for compliments...)

Anyway - I figure a blog could be useful.  Almost every week as I mull over my previous preach I realise something new about the passage or subject (...and then I think "If only I'd prepared properly, then I could have included it in my preach"...) But now I can put it in my blog!

Also I hope that it will help us have a bit of dialogue as you can post comments and replies. 

Also, from now on please don't sit on the chair next to me at church - I need the room for my massive ego.
