For all my life I was never one to enjoy writing. And yet, when the Lord saved me, he gave me the desire to read. The more I read, the more I felt the itch to write my own content.

Here I am, and I’ve been writing seriously since 2018. By God’s grace I’ve been able to write a book and another one is brewing. And, of course, I’ve had the privilege of writing blogs each week for my readers.

And since 2018, my blog has grown! It’s not attracting hundreds upon hundred of viewers a day, but it’s slowly receiving more traffic each day and, hopefully, more people are benefiting from my writing. My latest viewership for 2021 was more than three times the previous year! My blog has been featured on Challies.com, The Gospel Coalition, Gospel-Centered Discipleship, Servants of Grace, For the Church, United? We Pray, The Aquila Report, and more.

Which brings me to the point. I truly love writing these blogs every week; it’s a sincere passion of mine. I hope to continue writing weekly for years and years to come. But I want to do so much more with this site. In order to do so, I need your support.

Would you consider supporting me by becoming a patron? If you sign up (for as little as $3/month), you will receive other benefits. Perhaps you don’t want to support me monthly, but merely make a one-time donation. You can do so via Venmo, which my username is blakelong94.

If you are unable to do either of those, please consider sharing this blog so others may see it!

Thank you to all my readers. I truly hope that the Lord uses this blog to grow you more into the image of his Son (Romans 8:29).
