Wanna Trade A Sentence for a Book?
My life is often stuck in the gear of busy. I usually don’t mind it; however, with so much on my plate, I have not had the time to dedicate to blogging that I wish I could. I have three sites waiting to transform from Model-T to Mustang and this one that is wanting a new paint job. But it got me thinking about what is “under the hood” of the sites. I have a purpose for each site which influences its content and makeup but do the few readers understand the purpose? So I had a thought: I’ll trade you a book for a sentence.
I am looking for you to define, in your own words, the purpose of NRJohnson.me . . . in one sentence. If I asked you the “Why?” of the site, how would you respond? I am not interested in you writing what I want you to say – I want to hear what YOU have to say.
So here’s the trade:
Give me one hand-crafted sentence that sums up NRJohnson.me and you’ll be entered in a drawing for a free book. Write your sentence in the comment section below (make sure you include your name and email in the spaces provided) and I will randomly pick a winner on Friday June 10, 2011.
The book? One of the top five books, outside the Bible, that have influenced my life the most: The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence. This hundred page pocked-sized book may be small in stature but mammoth in meaning. Learn how to have daily-intimate oneness with Jesus in this simple yet profound book.
Note: Comments have to be approved before they show up – so after clicking “submit comment” be patient; it should be seen within a few hours. The winner will be selected randomly and announced on Friday June 10, 2011. One entry limited to each individual.
I haven’t been following this blog for very long so I can only answer my impression of this site over a very short time span. I would say that the purpose of nrjohnson.me is… “To connect and encourage readers in living a life centered around Christ, by providing original content along with outside resources to equip the growing Christian.”
NRJOHNSON.ME has renewed my desire to draw closer to the Lord Jesus Christ and make him supreme in my daily life.
NRJOHNSON.ME is a fountain where the intergenerational saturation of human hearts in the transformational Presence of Life bubbles over into the hearts and minds of those seek the unspeakable intimacy of God.
The purpose of NRJOHNSON.ME is to push people deeper into Jesus, to cause them to lean on Him for their Sole Reliance in complete dependance, and inspire them to surrender all to the One Who gave everything to purchase them with His very blood.
NRJohnson.me exists… “because NRJohnson has tasted and seen that the LORD is good, and he just can’t keep it to himself!”
1 Chronicles 16:24
Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.
The purpose of NRJohnson.me is to spur a generation of weak, namby-pamby believers into radical, selfless, historic, world-altering Christianity for the glory of God.
Through Bible studies, book reviews, and blog posts, NRJohnson.me presses its readers to know Jesus more, follow Jesus deeper, and cherish Jesus above all else!
Our internet has been going crazy, so I didn’t write this in time – but here’s a sentence anyways, even though it’s late :)
The purpose of NRJohnson.me is to call forth a band of believers to return to the historic, heroic Christianity of the Bible and give everything they have and are for the One who gave His very life.
