Who and What?

This is my blog, for my first post I will tell you what my blog is about and who I am. My name is Will Irwin, I am a Pastors son and I enjoy writing, reading, hanging out with friends and playing with my dog Tess. I believe in God but Im a different type of believer. I believe that too much of religion turns off non believers rather than make them want to go to church. I think that if you act too judgemental or too strict with religion no one will ever want to be a believer. People think that non believers look at christians and see a "change in our hearts" but I think christianity is often viewed as boring, plain and all around not fun. My dad Tim Irwin makes church more fun by telling a joke before the sermon. Also many churches have switched to contemperary music making church a better experience for younger guests. I believe things like this that reach out to the public are what make non believers want to go to church.

As for what my blog is about, it will be filled with different things I have done the day I post or little thoughts I have like the paragraph above about my views on christianity. I'll be posting about twice a week hopefully. From time to time I will maybe review a movie I have seen or a play, this isn't really a blog dedicated to one thing as much as it is dedicated to everything I am thinking. My main goal with this blog is to open up my mind to the people I meet so they can get to know me through my various posts. Throughout my posts I will have pictures from my day to give a visual aid to the reader, hopefully this will be the only post without a picture. I will be most likely to post on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays so check here then. I hope you enjoy reading my blog and getting to know me in the next few months.
