Wow, it feels like a decade that I’ve been away. For those who have been accustomed to me updating this blog daily, you might be wondering where I was.
First off, I migrated the blog from the hosting service I was using (and which was giving me headaches going down every so often in the past week or so) to a new host. Thanks to some friendly pointers and recommendations, I’m settled with a new hosting service company that’s offering me a ton of disk space (350 GB to be exact) and loads of options.
With thanks to God, the migration went well!
At the same time, because I can now host an unlimited number of domains and sites on my account, I decided to set up a blog that I’ve been meaning to for the longest time.
And this is where this call for contributors comes in.
I’m looking for like-minded brethren and sisters who have a passion for evangelism and would like to contribute articles and posts to a new blog called Spreading the Gospel. The blog isn’t fully set up right now in terms of content with much in flux, so here’s where I was thinking that a group of us can work together to reach out to seekers on the Internet.
While I agree that there’s some doubt if such an evangelistic outreach would be effective, there is no doubt that there are folks out there who, when they face crises in their lives, search for answers online. I pray that with this new blog, some might be led to come to the site and, in addition to having some assurance, come to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
The blog will primarily minister to non-believers, but will also help Christians, especially those who are false converts, have backslided, or are babes in the faith.
If you are interested in such an outreach, please drop me an email so we can start working on putting up the site with more content as soon as possible, then launch it.
I pray that I’ll get some responses to collaborate on this.

Isaiah ~ I was able to take a look at the new blog and I am excited about the possibilities. I have also left a comment there already and put the site into my feed reader.
Thanks for what you do!!

Wow! Just at a glance, it looks so helpful. Looks like some of the information will answer the questions “Thomas” has been asking. I am surprised at the number of emails and personal questions about the gospel that I have gotten since starting my blog in June. I did not realize the ministry opportunities that presented with just a plain old blog from a mom. People are starving for the truth and answers to their questions.
If there is ever anything that you see from my site that you think might be helpful, please help yourself. Things are a little hectic (and depressing) around here right now but I’ll get a chance to read over your new site soon hopefully.
May all your service for the Lord be bountiful and produce 100 fold,

Hello, Isaiah.
This is a great idea. It kind of goes along w/ my little Bible Study blog… which I write pretty much w/ my college-age brother in mind. If you see a post you can use, please feel free…. http://www.lavrai.com/theword/
Peace, and I pray GOD blesses this endeavor.

That’s an interesting suggestion.
But I’m not exactly sure what kind of stuff you’re looking for. Apologetics? Sure, can try that.
Although I would be busy (especially from next year on), I might be able to think of something along that line. But I can’t commit on a regular basis (that depends on how “regular” we’re talking about).

Kevin:
Thank you for the encouragement!
Will you be stepping in as a contributor on a regular basis or… ? Do feel free to drop me an email as that will be more conducive for discussions.
Mike:
I didn’t do much, brother. Evangelism has always weighed heavily on my heart and this is one way God has shown me that I can do His will.
Thank you for the support!
Berean Wife:
Sis, thank you for the kind words and blessings! Thank you, too, for the email correspondence. I’ve sent you more information on contributing to the blog.
ChannelofHealing:
Thank you, sis!
Sweet as! I’m looking forward to reading your husband’s posts too. Please say ‘hi’ to him for me, and send him my encouragement.
LaVrai:
Thank you, sis. I’ll go ahead and pick up any articles that I think helpful and give you the proper credit for them.
Vincent:
Bro, I’d be most delighted and honored to have you on board. You write well, and I know you will be an asset on some topics being a GP and all.
Contributors do not have a schedule — contribute as and when you can, and you can. I’ll send you an email where we can discuss this further.
