What Does Bursting the Bubble Mean?

Three years ago, I started blog called The Bubble.  It was inspired by my own faith journey and those around me. It was named The Bubble at the suggestion of a friend of mine. Our joke was that we, as a little close knit faith group, were sort of safe and comfortable in our own "bubble" and everyone outside be damned. I was okay with that, until I realized that it was actually the exact opposite of what my faith was actually leading me to see and to believe.

Let me start my explanation of Bursting the Bubble with a couple of questions. Have you ever believed in something so strongly that you were willing to die for that belief? I'm talking hard core no questions asked conviction. Did you keep it to yourself, or were you willing to talk to anyone who would listen? That's what I'm intending to do with this blog. You see, if you really believe in something, you don't only talk to the people who share your beliefs, you talk to anyone who will listen. Why? Because you really believe that you have the truth, and if you really believe you have the truth, it isn't okay that other people don't know that truth.

So, I'm bursting the bubble. I'm jumping outside of the circle of comfort that is comprised of people who only believe what I believe, and I'm inviting you to do the same.
