And, the dying fizzle is due to a weakness in the story. I circle back and look for places to amp things up either with action or dialog or intrigue or all of those things. Sometimes it's too many characters stealing the steam. Sometimes you need to add a sidekick. The main thing is blocks usually stem from a weak story. (less)

The post’s content is diverse, varied, and potentially uncomfortable. There are some discordant notes and some resolution. I needed to piece it all together like a mosaic and hope for the best.

So, here goes…

And please let your theological SWAT team rest while reading this.

I’ve seen bloggers do what I’m doing: they post for a while, then stop because they lose momentum and the drive to sustain it

Quotes by Allen G. Bagby  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You said that if the truth hurts, deception feels good. For a brief moment in my youth I touched the truth of what you said. You said the spiritual leaders had once endeavored to suck the poison from the snakebites of the soul and spit it out. But a new era began when the spiritual ones swallowed the poison instead and became deceived.”
Allen G. Bagby, Blood and Soul

“The time for rest in this world is over.”
Allen G. Bagby, Blood and Soul

“My point is there will always be vile men, just as there will always be men of kindness and compassion... ...This world is a troubled, savage, place. It would, however, even be more ghastly if only evil men took time to master weapons." - Waylander from the book Hero in the Shadows by David Gemmell”
David Gemmell, Hero in the Shadows

“We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge.”
John Naisbitt, Megatrends

“If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you're mis-informed.”
Mark Twain

“We are tiny flames, Helikaon, and we flicker alone in the great dark for no more than a heartbeat. When we strive for wealth, glory and fame, it is meaningless. The nations we fight for will one day cease to be. Even the mountains we gaze upon will crumble to dust. To truly live we must yearn for that which does not die.”
David Gemmell, Shield of Thunder
