Update - 2025
Hello! I've neglected writing for fun (here) over the past few years, mostly because my attention has been consumed largely by the constant process of writing for preaching, and by the research and writing connected to the Doctorate that I've been labouring in since 2022. These two commitments have certainly consumed my imagination and my energy for extra-curricular composition.... till now!
In the first months of 2025 I concluded my role as the Senior Pastor and primary preacher at Georges River Life Church and, I also finished the first full draft of my thesis and sent it off to my supervisors. So within the space of a month, the two largest writing commitments have abruptly ceased, and I am coming to terms with a wide open diary in which to look back and think forward.
For me, writing is my best avenue for thinking well and paying attention to what is happening in and around me. Writing or journaling is a spiritual practice to order and articulate often incomplete and confused thoughts and feelings. To quote American author and poet Jim Ferris, he said "I dont know what I think till I read what I have to say." I think that's me too.
If you want to reach out, best to get me on my gmail email account: revscomo@gmail.com
Warmly
