This Blog has been set up as a tool to assist any and all young men who have been involved in small group Bible studies with me over the years. I also invite my close friends and family members to join in discussion with us. It is my hope that it will serve to inspire and enhance personal studies and therefore strengthen our faith in Jesus Christ. The contents are the opinion and thoughts of Bruce Kratky and do not necessarily reflect the policies and teachings of any one local church body.
Love Those Stringed Instruments.

So, Bruce you have stopped writing. I have a hard time believing that you have also stopped thinking. I think you just need to find more devoted readers. Challenge some people to start a blog and then agree to read and comment on each other's blogs.
