Connecting with Planters

Blogging is a pain in the butt. It takes a lot of time, you get blasted for what you say, people get upset, etc. But ONE (I think there are many) benefits of blogging is the networking you are able to do with other planters. In the last week I have met with several planters (many who found me through this blog), have talked to several planters by phone, and have chatted with a couple through e-mail.

It is awesome that God allows us to be there for those that need to chat and it awesome to have someone there when you need to plant. When I planted in Iowa, I knew NO ONE. I had never felt so alone and it was very hard. Blogging is a great way to connect with people who are doing what you are doing and have a passion for it.
