			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before beginning a blog determining your blog’s purpose is one of the most important things you need to do.  For some it’s easy to decide and for others it’s no easy task.  But for everyone it should involve some prayer.</p>
<p>Before deciding on your blog’s purpose, ask yourself these questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>What topics do you enjoy?</li>
<li>What topics do you not enjoy?</li>
<li>Do you feel led to build a community?</li>
<li>What is your passion?</li>
<li>Do you feel you can honor God with your chosen topic or purpose?</li>
<li>Why are you blogging?  As a ministry, as a business, or just for fun?</li>
</ol>
<p>If you enjoy participating in the women’s ministry at your church, you might enjoy running a blog with the purpose of encouraging Christian women.  If you love creating Sunday School lessons your blogs purpose could be to help other Sunday School teachers develop their lessons.</p>
<p>Whatever purpose you decide on, it should be something you feel comfortable writing about.  If you’re unable create posts on the topic then what’s the point in having the blog?  I’ve often heard it said that if you can’t come up with 10 blog posts before starting you shouldn’t start a blog.</p>
<p>No matter what, don’t forget to pray about your blog’s purpose before starting and remember you can always change your mind later.  It’s your blog and God’s will for you might change along the way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When God decided to create the earth and its occupants, do you think He did it without a plan?  No He didn’t.  He planned the 7 days of creation.  He even created a plan for each of us before we were even born.</p>
<div>
<blockquote><p>“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5</p>
<p>“Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly [places] in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:” Ephesians 1:3-4</p></blockquote>
</div>
<p>If God took the time to plan shouldn’t we?  Of course, our plans should be based on God’s will and if you don’t know God’s will for your life, then plans might be hard to make or they might fall through.  But if it’s God’s will for you to create and run a blog, then you need a plan for that blog.</p>
<p><strong>What should your plan include?</strong></p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Purpose.</strong>  Before you start a blog you need to know why you are blogging.  What is your purpose?  Are you encouraging others?  Are you educating others?</li>
<li><strong>Topic.  </strong>What are you going to blog about?  Are you going to write devotions?  Are you going to write about motherhood or do product reviews?  Maybe a mixture of all three?  Whatever topics you decide on, make sure they are topics you enjoy.  If you can’t come up with at least 50 blog posts before starting then you might want to rethink your topics.</li>
<li><strong>Time.</strong>  Blogging can become addictive.  Determine ahead of time how much time you are willing to dedicate to your blog.  Things to keep in mind are how often you will post, promoting your blog, and basic blog maintenance.</li>
<li><strong>Platform.</strong>  What blogging platform will you use?  <a title="Blogger" href="http://blogger.com">Blogger</a>?  <a title="WordPress" href="http://wordpress.org">WordPress</a>? <a title="Tumblr" href="http://tumblr.com">Tumbr</a>?  The options are numerous.  Do your research and find which one will work the best for you.</li>
<li><strong>Promotion.</strong>  How will you promote your blog?  Will you have a newsletter?  Will you have a <a title="Christian Bloggers" href="http://facebook.com/faithfulbloggers.com">Facebook fan page</a> or a Twitter account?  Will you comment on other blogs or join in memes or link ups to try to build readership?</li>
</ol>
<p>Having a plan before you start a blog will make life a lot easier. <em>Believe me I know from experience.</em>  Even if you already have a blog, you can go ahead and make a plan.  Over the holidays, after much prayer,  I sat down and made a plan for 2012 for Faithful Bloggers.  I planned out content ideas, freebies, and marketing.  Since I have already created the plan, all I have to do now is execute it and that’s the easy part.</p>
<p>Do you have a plan for your blog?</p>

<p>Every Friday I post links to some posts that I recently read and loved. You can also leave links to any posts you loved too. If a post stands out to you, encourages you, teaches you, let us know about it. Leave a comment with a link to the post so that we can visit, leave a comment, and show some social love.</p>
<p>Here are some posts I enjoyed this past week:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://nginaotiende.blogspot.com/2011/12/my-earliest-memories-of-christmas-in.html">My Earliest Memories of Christmas in Africa</a></li>
<li><a href="http://nginaotiende.blogspot.com/2011/12/overcoming-my-christmas-blues-welcoming.html">Overcoming My Christmas Blues &amp; Welcoming 2012</a></li>
</ul>
<div>I have also created a Tumblr blog, <a href="http://postswelove.com">Posts We Love</a>, where I will link all the posts I come across that I love. If you have a Tumblr account and would like to be a member of that blog and submit posts as well, just shoot me an email with your email address and I&#8217;ll add you as a member. Every Friday, I will add some of the links from the Tumbr blog to the Posts We Love edition here on Faithful Bloggers.</div>
