@creative_ben Indeed, glad to be the 50th! Yeah, I've met Silver briefly, nice to see a little community of Christian friends. Anybody on Discord?

Alas, for the first Wednesday in sixteen weeks, I have no new chapters to post on my books. I'm not really used to that right now. I suppose I ought to get going on a new project sometime soon...
Come on, Ben, pull yourself together.
Anyways, since I don't have a chapter for you all, I'll just ask three questions instead.
1. What was your favorite part of "Pups Save the World"?
2. Who was your favorite character in the book?
3. How high (or low) would you rate the book out of a scale from 1 to 10?
I look forward to seeing all your answers!

I need you all to encourage me a bit. I don't want to let down my guard up here on Wattpad and would rather stay the optimistic, cheerful guy, but I feel like I need to write my feelings down somewhere instead of bottling them up.
On January 16, I followed four Christians who shared my opinion on the LGBTQ+ issue. About two weeks ago or so, one of them (@walkingwithchrist) lost her password and thus created a new account, @willowspacelover. Shortly afterwards, she decided to leave Wattpad for good. Two others, @im_hungry_rn and @SilverflightRC, have gone inactive indefinitely. And the one remaining, @SpaceXStarship30, is going through a challenging time in his life. I remember I asked you all to pray for him twice before. His depression is not relenting, and he now refuses to believe that God has anything for him. I nearly cried upon seeing his message. I just don't know what to do.
The world is only turning more and more evil by the minute and will continue to do so until Jesus Christ comes back to Earth and makes things right. Society is willfully turning away from God and shutting Him out.
Add family relationship issues on top of this, and I can only lay all my problems at God's feet. I feel surrounded by such an amazing Wattpad community and yet a bit lonely at the same time. I sometimes wonder if I made a mistake joining Wattpad. Please reassure me that the opposite is true!
With all my best wishes,

@ManofGod57 Yes! It’s already so good to know people on here are sharing the gospel

Hey, everybody, I have a question for you all this beautiful Monday morning! What is your honest opinion on Charlie Kirk?
Child_Of_God316
@creative_ben I think he 100% did not deserve what happened to him, no matter what a person's political or religious beliefs are, they do not deserve to have that happen.

Hey, everybody! This beautiful Saturday morning, I have three things to tell you all.
First and foremost, "Pups Save the World: A Satirical PAW Patrol Fanfiction" is finally complete! And your turnout has far exceeded my expectations. I was only expecting 500 views and was hoping for 1000 at most, but as of today, you have given me 2739! Yay! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for giving my book a chance and your time. I really appreciate your support.
Second, as a follow-up to the first announcement, I am creating a spinoff of "Pups Save the World" titled "PAW Patrol: Ask Chase and Me Anything", where, as the title literally just stated, you can ask Chase and me any question you want, whether it be related or not to my first book. (Not a Valentine's Day special, just a spinoff.) Nothing off-limits (except for some deeply personal matters, of course)! I am excited to see all you want to know about both Chase and me, and I am ready to have some fun with you all. All questions are welcome!

Third, happy Valentine's Day! On this celebration of love, I just want to point out the greatest love ever poured out for us. In His farewell message to His disciples, Jesus said, "There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends" (John 15:13, NLT). The next day, He willingly went to the cross to suffer the punishment we deserve for our sins. This truly is the greatest love story that ever existed, and the best part is, IT IS REAL! If you have not yet believed in it, I invite you to receive Jesus Christ into your heart as your Lord and Savior right now. There is no bigger decision you can ever make in your life, and there is no better time to believe than today.
Thank you for being such an amazingly supportive community.
With gratitude and blessings to each and every one of you,

Congratulations on finishing your story, Ben.
Are you planning to write another story or a sequel at time soon? Or are you taking a break from the writing?
creative_ben
@JNightshade666 No need to say any more about that. I actually have plans for other stories right now (no guarantees I will publish them, however).

@creative_ben Very interested in seeing what you will come up with next. And I promise I will read it all the way through. Just in my own time. I saw the notification update on your story, saw it was epilogue and acknowledgements and correctly assumed it meant you finished. Not sure what else to say about that.

Hey, do you know what's up with starship?
creative_ben
@Sp33dySam I don't know. He is not the kind of person who is eager to talk about his problems. I do know that he is going through a difficult time in his life, with school, romance, haters on Wattpad, etc. Let's keep praying for him!

Hey everyone! I nearly forgot since a lot has been on my mind recently, and I know that this is the end of the day (at least for me), but today is the birthday of @disneyloverrr! She is turning fourteen today! (I guessed her age right a few days ago and thus she sent me seven followers in one day, I think. Many thanks to her!) Anyways, let's all give her a hearty HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
