@kendratoo Please make sure that you have an excerpt defined in the posts – since they are not automatically showing up, you have two options:
1- Figure out what is causing the automatic excerpts to fail – try disabling all your plugins and then reactivate them one by one to see which one may be causing this behavior.
2- Edit each post and define your own excerpt: In order to explicitly specify an excerpt for a post or a page, go to the page/post edit screen. Click on “Screen Options” in the top right. See this screenshot: http://prntscr.com/csmy4q It would open a ‘drawer’ like this: http://prntscr.com/csmyaj Make sure “Excerpt” is checked. Now scroll down to see the “Excerpt” field (it should be after the content editor): http://prntscr.com/csmzcg Whatever you enter in here will be shown on the home page and any place where the post/page excerpts are being displayed.

Thanks! Right before I read this, I figured out it was a plugin I had installed to increase the font size. I deactivated it & they showed up again. The plugin was showing up before the excerpt in each post so it was appearing as blank on the front page.
Is there an option for increasing the font for my blog posts? It’s so tiny.
Sure, in order to increase the font size, try this in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS
body.style2 {
font-size: 150%;
}
