It's always tough getting started. Try some free form writing. Take one or two minutes and just start writing what comes to mind. Things that you have thought about this week etc.
Just start writing something. An idea will emerge from there. And here's something I hope helps....   I'm firmly planted in denial |

Do a sermon on writer's block! On how you had difficulty thinking of what to say and how to say it and how sometimes life gets in the way of things blah blah blah!

You can do a sermon about how we shouldn't spend our lives waiting for inspiration, we can't succumb to writer's block, and how we must press on with the task at hand! | |

What is it about the events that have gotten you blocked off (read...closed off)? Maybe it will help you take your eyes off the waves... On a side note.... 9's, Muse 's to youI'm firmly planted in denial |

Yeah, but confession is another thread, and I don't argue with some athiests. Can't convince someone who doesn't have interest except to win a discussion. Give us a word, ALT.. | |
