There are several blogs and blog posts dedicated to what it takes to have a good blog. I’ve read through some of them and learned some things but there were also times that I felt discouraged about rebooting the blog. One thing that can be found fairly regularly is that a blog should be focused on very few topics or just one topic. This has been an obstacle for me because I don’t have any one particular area of interest that I want to write about. There are several interests and they can be very different from one another. This has created tension when attempting to plan an editorial calendar that follows a series of thoughts and topics.
Recently the desire to begin writing again and the need for an area of focus finally came together for me. While the posts that I want to write might not be of interest to one particular group of readers, I think that the topics will match the audience because there are other people whose interests span several areas much like mine do. I also hope that I can still offer something on a topic of interest to any particular group of readers. All of my various topics do come into focus because I am writing from my viewpoint and worldview.
Here is a list of topics that will come up on this blog:
- Jesus Christ
- Kingdom of God
- Scripture
- Ministry
- College ministry
- Campus ministry
- Young Adult ministry
- Academic ministry
- Theology
- Philosophy
- Ethics
- Philosophy of Science
- History of Science
- Philosophy of Religion
- Christian Philosophy
- Theological Philosophy
- World Religions
- Comparative Religions
- Comparative Mythology
- Anthropology
- Social Science
- Natural Science
- Physics
- Quantum Physics
- Astronomy
- Astrophysics
- Cosmology
- Science and Religion
Some of these are broad topics and some are somewhat specific. I hope that as I spend time writing about them I will be able to explain and illustrate the ways that they are interconnected. My daily work and passion is campus ministry and these topics are viewed through that lens.
