		<description><![CDATA[Reasons not to blog
In the past year I have been nibbling on the idea of a blog funeral for blogpastor.net.  One reason was my burnout. My blog entries went downhill and I wrote less often. My heart was not there and inspiration waned. Another was the temptation to follow the crowd. Many blogs have in [...]]]></description>

Over 450 fans of Philip Yancey, popular Christian author, filled the ACS Junior School auditorium with lively anticipation. Each seminar participant held a plastic file of notes titled &#8220;3 Keys to Quality Writing&#8221; and each clutched a two-in-one gift book by the author,&#8221; The Jesus I Never Knew&#8221; and &#8220;Disappointment with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Memories in a thumbdrive.
I took it from Vee San, my website designer, and thanked her profusely. At least the files of all my archived posts were intact. Some were precious because they were the fruit of research and risk. Others were sentimental in value. Not only were all the files intact, but they looked and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have written out of necessity to pass my theological exams and in the course of pastoral work. I have also steadily kept journals since I was in National Service, after I became a Christian. These were mainly my devotional jottings, prayers, feelings, and sermon ideas.
