Introducing UK Fellowship Friday Blog Hop

Last year I was really struggling with feeling tired all the time. One thing that helped me more than anything was our weekly home fellowship. I was able to chat about the Bible (with no children to take up my thoughts!) and be inspired and encouraged by others.

The only problem was that during school holidays or times when something different was going on, and there were no home fellowships, I barely kept my head above water.

But there came a day when I wasn’t counting down the days to my home fellowship anymore, and didn’t need it quite so desperately… and that was when I started using Twitter!

Twitter introduced me to lots of Christian women (mainly in the USA) who are similar to me: stay at home mothers who homeschool. What was even better is that most of them had blogs.

I could read their blogs, and be encouraged, without even meeting them! That really demonstrates to me the value of fellowship via blogging, although of course we still need our home church fellowship as well.

When I first started blogging, I searched for Christian bloggers in the UK and had difficulty finding them. Now I know of quite a few more, but many of them are not very widely known.

In contrast to that, the USA seems to have a gazillion Christian bloggers! Of course the country is a lot larger than ours, which might help with that too 🙂

When I come back to the UK from the USA I often get a feeling that there is a spiritual darkness over here. Many people seem depressed, and Christians find it difficult to live in victory.

So I wanted to have a link-up for Christian bloggers in the UK to encourage each other and to find others that are doing the same thing, as well as helping readers to find more Christian blogs.

If you know other Christian bloggers in the UK who blog about their faith please consider sharing this with them! I’m planning on hosting this blog hop each Friday.

The Blog Hop

I would love you to link up if you have recently written a post about your faith that might encourage other Christians – it could be a testimony, reflection, or challenge. The only other requirement is that you live in the UK.

If you join below, please either link to this post in a text-link, or get the code at the bottom of the link up, so your readers can find the other blogs in the blog hop. One day I might find time to figure out how to make a button!!
