This was scaled back to twice a week in Advent.
For Lent of this year, I've decided to give the entire site a "fast" from updates and most internet activity. I am doing this for a few reasons.
- Quality Control. I am more concerned with generating articles that are genuinely going to help people rather than just generating articles to do them. I believe that in the last year I have put a great deal out there. I want to take the time in Lent to discern if anything more "needs" to be written on the issue.
- The Sainthood Challenge. It is available for download here. I think that it is a pretty good exercise for Lent and for a year if you need it. As I was writing a Lenten Resource (Named "Terminal") I was unhappy with the amount of redundancy. I wasn't comfortable just pushing through another resource and wanted to do something that would genuinely help people in a new way. "Terminal" wasn't doing anything the Sainthood Challenge wasn't.
- I'm being called to be more central in my vocation. I am not a priest or religious and my vocation is my domestic church, my family. While serving others is important, it isn't the most important thing that I do.
- If it is God's will, a break during Lent from the Internet, the site, from Facebook, Twitter, won't change anything. If it isn't God's will, there won't be anything I can do to "force" more entries.
