I want to write on the subject of music that I want to make, not just music that I might be listening to or appreciating. Other styles and kinds of music might inform the others, but I want to set out with what I am doing. I was hoping for this first post to be a little boring like the Prolegomena of a theology text. the Spice will come if I really get into this writing.. thanks for the comment joey.

I go out on hike's to find the quiet beauty and truth. I often read my bible and think that I know exactly how a passage should be looked at. As if all the great minds before me missed it. Am I really that much smarter than they were? Nope I am just less humble. I especially resonate with:

But it is to what extent are these things used. We shouldnt be filled by these things, these things in and of themselves arnt bad. The excess of these things is what is bad. The only thing we as christians should be filled with is the Holy Spirit. To be filled with anything else is sin. I think the debate here is not (blanket statement) these things are bad.

When Christians shy away from speaking the Gospel we lose our prescence and lose our right to speak. So I will not make it a point to confront every insanity of Godlessness, but I will not shy away from it as well. From a internet blog point-of-view, to speak about topics that are relevant or current, brings more readers. I want people to read this. I don't want to waste my words. I also am experimenting with the type of material that this blog will best lend itself to and what is the best writing and thinking style. Thanks for the comments! Jonathan:
