Notice to the reader – controversial topics
It’s been a while since I last updated this site and blog so I know I’m due for another post — especially since according to the site stats I’m now getting quite a few hits per day.
However, one thing I’ve noticed is that most of the traffic to my blog and website is coming from searches of divisive and controversial topics. There’s nothing wrong with that per se, but my goal isn’t to be stirring the pot just for the sake of causing trouble. Quite frankly, I’m not sure that the search terms that I see people are finding my site are indicative of positive and healthy intent.
While I have addressed some tougher topics, the purpose is for defense of sound doctrine and for the health of the church in general. Yet I have a feeling that many of the readers of my articles, especially some of the earlier ones from 2005-07, are being found by people who instead hold some animosity toward churches and the historic tenets of the Christian faith, and are looking for fuel for their fire. That is not what this site exists for! If you are reading this in search of some hot tidbit to use in an attack upon the church or historical, Gospel-centered Christianity, please look elsewhere. But if you are a defender of the faith, committed to the church, and intent on protecting her well-being, then welcome! If this is you, then I hope some of the articles and links I have provided will somehow be used to encourage you and bring glory to God.
