Hi iChristian Family!
WordPress kindly notified me of this 11 years of blogging award badge, so obviously i’m celebrating this achievement! 💪🏼 😀
But seriously…I only have you guys to thank! I can’t believe the warm welcomes, the encouragements, the support, the prayers, the laughs and the cries…I could list much more but i wanted to keep this short, lol! 🤣 Oh and never mind the fact that you’re still here reading, liking, and commenting…I can’t believe you’re not bored yet, lol?! The journey i share with you guys is ineffable and i wouldn’t change it for the world…Well except to meet you guys face to face! 💪🏼 😀
I initially only started this blog to simply have a place/web address for ‘My Testimony‘ that someone in my church forced me to write down when i’d shared it with them over coffee. ☕
And now look what’s happened…1,950 are following iChristian, it’s entered 196 countries, 151,078 hits and i’m meeting new friends on here all of the time…To say it’s a blessing is a monumental understatement!!
🙏 Prayer 4 2day…
I do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. (Colossians 1:9-14)
My Testimony…
I’d love for all of my new friends on here to grab a coffee (any beverage of choice) and take a moment to read ‘My Testimony‘, and see what God has done and is doing in my life. And of course all of my old friends are welcome to read my updated testimony too, lol! 🙏 🤣

I’ve followed you for a while but I never knew your story! What an amazing gift of grace God has given you, saving your life so you could impact others with the gospel, using Sarah to walk with you on this journey, and allowing you to see HIm and His hope for you in ways that are astounding. I also didn’t realize Sarah had issues with her sight at well–that kind of makes you a super couple. Especially with the attitudes with which you approach life. And you continue to give all the glory to God. Thank you so much for sharing so vulnerably and honestly.
I’ve been following you since I first started blogging. Thank you for sharing your love of Jesus with us! Happy Anniversary, my brother! So glad you’re here!
Awww thanks so much, you must be bored by now, lol! 🤣 Thanks for all of your lovely comments over the years, God bless you. 🙏
LOL! No not bored at all 😀
Congratulations on your 11th year on WordPress. Wishing you more success.🙏
Wow thank you, it’s such a blessing meeting all of you on here, God bless you! 🙏
Super Congrats. I first posted here on WP back in March 2012, so eleven years also.
BTW – with this comment from the post above— Oh and never mind the fat that you’re still here reading, liking, and commenting— are you calling me fat? ROFLOL I know you meant to say fact, I had to call you on it though. That said, yes I am fat, thank you very much, or did you mean PHAT? lol
Oh wow i never knew that spelling mistake was there…I’ve now changed it to ‘fact’ and i thank you for calling me out on it, i don’t have a proof reader apart from you guys, lol! 🤣
I’d never call anyone ‘fat’ as i know how much it hurts, but i do use ‘Phat’ often when describing music, guitar tone, drums, car exhaust and engines…Yes i think i use it a lot! 😀
Oh i love being part of the 11 year blogging club with you! a huge congratulations to you too! God bless you. 🙏
Congratulations, Steve, on 11 year anniversary of blogging. It is wonderful that you started the blog with a little coercion from your friend and continued. One never knows the influence that you may have on your blog. Statistics do not tell the whole story and one never knows if someone shared your post with one, whose life was changed. Your life is a testimony to the grace of God. Abundant blessings to you and Sarah, with your lives and blog!
Awww thanks so much! I never knew how much i’d be blessed by all of your blogs too when i first posted 11 years ago. To meet brothers and sisters in Christ from all around the world when i struggle to get out of my front door is amazing! God bless you and your blog oozing with Godly wisdom! God bless you! 🙏
You are welcome, Steve. We are all part of the body of Christ, all over the world, and encourage each other, despite our challenges. So glad you still blogging. Your kind words and blessing are received with appreciation. Remember, you are not your struggles or limitations but a wonderful person created in your Father’s image, with special giftings of creativity, as a photographer, musician, and writer, bringing out beauty, unseen by others. Your voice, being, tenaciousness, and insight are needed. It is wonderful to know you through this blog and your photography blog. Keep going one step at a time, as we encourage each other! \o/ 🎶💕😎
Happy 11th Anniversary WordPress. Anita
Thank you so much Anita! I never thought i’d still be here and being blessed by all of you amazing people! God bless you. 🙏
