I’ve been spending some time exploring a few Christian blogs lately, and I have to say—it’s been a joy.

There are hundreds, even thousands, of believers openly sharing their faith, their stories, and what God is doing in their lives. And honestly? It’s encouraging.

We hear so many statistics claiming that the Christian faith is fading. But when I see people boldly writing, sharing, and testifying online, I don’t see a faith that’s dying—I see a faith that’s being lived out.

God has given us the ability to create and use technology, and I love seeing it used to spread His Word across the world. In many ways, this is a modern expression of what Paul said in Romans 1:16—we are not ashamed of the gospel.

Jesus tells us in Matthew 28:18–20 to go and make disciples. That command isn’t limited to standing behind a pulpit or writing a book. It includes every tool and opportunity we’ve been given.

Today, that includes blogs, posts, and digital spaces where truth can be shared and lives can be touched.

I’m grateful for those who faithfully write, share, and point others to Christ. Their obedience is making a difference.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the joy of reading and learning from so many faithful writers. Give us strength and courage to say what needs to be said in the days ahead. Let the Fruit of the Spirit grow and mature in us as we share You with the world around us. Give us integrity in what we write–that we would handle Your Word faithfully and teach it as You intend. We offer this prayer to You, our Mighty and Awesome God, in the precious name of Jesus– Make it so.
