My First Blog Post
October 30, 2018
It's official, I have a blog and I know how to use it.
I have finally decided to take the plunge and add a blog to my site. I always wanted an easy way to share information with visitors and I'm super excited to start this journey. Keep coming back to my site and check for updates right here on the blog.
We submitted our building permit for our Preschool today and we are on track for a January opening. Praise the Lord with me. Thank you to all who have given to this project and for the efforts yet to be made. It takes the Church working together to accomplish His plans and purposes, and this is one illustration of that. Every effort or endeavor that we take as a church, will require the participation and perseverance of the Body. And you have done well. We felt the Lord leading us to do this, and it has taken courage, commitment and sacrifice to accomplish it. We believe our preschool will not only serve a practical need in our community, but will reach the hearts and homes of many for Christ. Be praying for the build out process which will begin this month. And be praying for the remaining work to be done to get up and running. It’s going to be a busy winter, but a glorious one.
Anyone can make one: For better or worse, anyone can write a blog post about anything they want. Everyone has a voice and the best voices will rise to the top. The writer can show their personality: In blog posts, the writer has more leeway to add in their voice and personality than other types of writing. Blogs are a great form of mass communication: You can help people, learn new things, entertain your audience-the possibilities are endless and amazing. Blogging opens up all of these to a very wide audience. You can make money: Get the right blog going and you can make a lot of money through advertising and sponsored posts. It allows people to craft better thoughts: Instead of reading haphazard, uneducated Facebook statuses, it's much better to see people's thought process in a well-written blog post. You can establish a community: Blogging allows you to connect with other individuals who share the same interests. Sharing ideas and opinions within your community helps establish yourself as a thought leader. Good for SEO: Keeping content on your site fresh and relevant, you can use your blog to boost the search engine ranking (SEO) of your site and your business. It brings people back to your site: If your blog is strong enough and updated regularly, people will come back looking for more and bring traffic back to your site as well. It's free: It costs you a grand total of zero dollars to post to the blog, so if you have something to say, there's nothing to stop you. You can establish yourself as a thought leader: A blog is a great place for your original thoughts, and it can be a wonderful way to show off your individuality. If people like your ideas, you can become a thought leader in your industry! What else do you love about blogs? Let me know!
