Cheri Strange, Christian Speaker and Author

     I’ve been thinking and praying about this blog for about a year now. As you can see from the entry history, I’ve done more thinking and praying that actual blogging. Not to despair, I finally believe I have at least a foggy vision of when I would like to post and what the nature of those posts should be. What can I say? I’m a contemplative and a lets-be-absolutely-sure kind of gal (which may sometimes be interpreted rightly as one who procrastinates the hard stuff).

     Today, I’m forging ahead. The plan is to post an entry most, if not every, Tuesday and Friday. Why Tuesday and Friday? Well, in all my months of pondering, praying, and postponing the blogging, I actually took seminars and sought out expert advice on the blogging phenomenon. Those in The Know have determined most of you like to follow bloggers who post on a regular basis and you like to read their posts at least twice per week.  Many of you even want pictures to coincide with the blog entry. Sorry. No can do until I can convince my sweet husband social networking is a constant that is not going away and he lets me have a Smart Phone….I’m almost there :)

     The selection of Tuesdays and Fridays is a personal preference. My decision hinged upon the schedule of our sanitation department.  I’m sure you would like to know, my garbage pick-up days are Mondays and Thursdays. Although this piece of information may seem trivial and pointless to you, be assured it is of the essence to what you will find on this blog.

      I take my garbage down the driveway and out to the curb each Monday and Thursday.  My physical garbage will be a visual reminder to me to throw out any trash, extra cumber, cultural packaging, and waste that exists in my heart before I sit down to write. Once the rotten, moldy, and absolutely putrid has been emptied out of ME, I will be prepared to prayerfully hear from the Lord what He wants for YOU. See, you had no idea my garbage pick-up schedule was all about YOU!

     The focus of what you will find in the Strange Blog will vary between instructive and reflective posts. Tuesdays seem like they should be instructive, while Fridays, more reflective and personal. Please, please bring your feedback to the cyber table. Comment and contribute. It’s just more fun.

     I’m so glad you’re here!
