Known by my nick “Kliska” (or some derivation) around the internet on various forums, I’ve decided to enter the blogosphere with this blog. I come from a small, rural community in the midwest USA, and have returned to the area with my husband after we completed our graduate degrees. He holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, and is a fully licensed, and practicing psychologist. I hold a Master’s Degree in counseling psychology, and am a certified licensed counselor who is a part-time instructor teaching at a college; psychology, sociology, philosophy, and logic are my main classes.
So why “The Christian Scribbler?” Because I have been a Christian for as long as I can remember, I have researched what I would call the other “main stream” religions, other, “smaller” religions, other philosophies, and have seen that the Truth of Christianity is The Truth, not a truth. Christianity can withstand any scrutiny; logical, historical, emotional, moral, spiritual, etc… I do not claim any particular denomination, nor do I claim any particular expertise. I have, however, come to enjoy discussing issues from the Christian perspective; music, movies, news headlines, theology, apologetics, etc… and decided to begin blogging on these very things. So, this blog is unlimited on what I plan to comment on from a Christian POV, I hope you enjoy it, dear reader, and if you don’t enjoy it, I at least hope it makes you think, or react in some manner.
Thank you for your comment on the ministry blog for Tzedakah Ministries. Would love to visit with you and find out more about your work, perhaps where you live and worship, and if there is a way that Tzedakah Ministries could work with your church home in the area of Jewish missions and evangelism. God bless. Shalom.
Kliska,
I just linked up to your swank cyber domain. You got a fan. Keep ‘scribbling’.
Peace,
HiScrivener
Kilska,
I’ve read several of your recent posts. I especially liked the one regarding Christian movies and the explanation of the “catholic” church.
I would like to add you to my blogroll, with your permission of course?
Keep it comin’!
YBIC,
Carl
I’d be honored to be added. Thanks for the comments!
Grace and Peace,
Kliska
Hi Kliska, I just found your blog and I love it! It’s a wider Christian perspective than the one that I find on many blogs. =) May I add you to my blogroll?

Welcome to the blog, thanks for your comments! Yes, you can link to it, if you like.
Hey, I am new to the blogsphere, and uuuh, i was looking through ur blog, and just wanted to ask if u could give me a few tips on how to start a good blog…
My theme is similar to yours. I am currently studying the bible, and I thought if I created a blog where i could interact and talk about Jesus then that would be good for my conviction
So yah, if u are willing, a reply would be greatly appreciated
First, make it clear what kind of comments you’ll approve and what kind you won’t. On a religious blog it is even more important that you moderate the comments. I’ve had to delete several just today that did not have anything but rhetoric in them; they are useless for the conversation, so they get deleted. If you are a believer, be prepared if you start blogging about Christ, and the Truth, you will be attacked, so I’d suggest prayer.
It is very easy to get frustrated with non-believers, try to lay some ground rules for yourself as to how you will respond to misunderstandings and rhetoric.
Second, I would suggest typing up several posts before you get started, so that you have plenty to post when you start blogging. Also, make it clear what topics you are going to cover, even if it is in general…as I say, I’ll cover just about anything from a Christian perspective if the mood hits me.
Finally, just write in line with your personality, be true to yourself and don’t try to be someone you aren’t when you are typing a blog post; if you use slang in your everyday speech, use it in your posts; it isn’t the same as if you are writing formally; however, if you want article-level blog posts, make sure you do put the time in and proof your stuff. That’s all I got for you right now, hope you have fun blogging!
Was trying to figure out if RED actually collab’d with BB and your blog had the confirmation I needed! Awesome blog man!
Thanks for droppin’ in! Yeah, Ben is the only one out of BB that worked with Red on Shadows.
Hello again Kliska
We ‘met’ on RR, and I have missed you since I left, as I so appreciated your input. Both you and ‘Tomski’ taught me so much, and it’s rare for me to feel confident to trust these days. Do you have contact with said young man? (Oops! no worries, I am a happily married old lady).
I am astonished that I found you by Googling ‘Kliska Christian Scribbler’!
Love and blessings from the former Expected Imminently
I definitely remember you from rr, and know Tomski too. I’ve not been on much of anywhere lately (the past few months), even on this blog of mine, so haven’t talked with him, or anyone else from the board in a good while. My internet went completely out, now it comes and goes minute to minute. It makes it almost impossible to download anything, and makes it very hard to reply to posts, and to put up new ones (the connection drops). Hopefully it is stabilizing now and I’ll be able to get back online to all “my” sites.
I hope you stick around and feel free to comment on any of my stuff, I always look forward to hearing from online friends
God Bless!
Kliska
