Problogger Darren Rowse put out a meme challenge this week to share some of our favorite posts from the past… this is my list.
- My first post – So I gave in. I wrote it over on blogger.com for my first blog post. You’ll notice posts older than that here, but they’re all from columns I wrote while working for The Belton Journal.
- A post I enjoyed writing the most – 11 things about our “daddy”. I wrote this after reading a similar post from Darren. It was a fun change of pace, imagining what a 1 and 2-year old would write about me and Laurie after spending 3 weeks in our home.
- A post which had a great discussion – Justin Farmer to leave WFAA. Not sure that this has had the best discussion — but definitely one of the most commented and visited.
- A post on someone else’s blog that I wish I’d written – Unity not uniformity by Headphonaught. I’ve read countless blog posts in the last 5 or 6 years, but this is one I refer back to more than any. Thomas came up with such an amazing illustration comparing our faith communities to salad rather than a huge melting pot of goop.
- My most helpful post – This was a tough one because I guess I’d like to think all my posts are helpful in some way or another — but based on the number of hits, I’m going to go with Ustream videos not working? Fixed! The runner up was Interesting Pot-luck themes.
- A post with a title that I’m proud of – 8 myths about caring for your neighbors. A pretty straight forward post about the excuses we use and the scary feelings we get when we’re asked to help our neighbors.
- A post that I wish more people had read – How I found heaven at What-A-Burger. I’d love to get some good discussion going on this post. Guess I didn’t seed it well enough for questions, but I think the implications for seeing ourselves as bringing heaven with us, wherever we go, is huge! The other post I wish more people would read, is more of the entire series, rather than one single post, but I wish more people would read the 5 posts I shared on What is emergent? I don’t claim it’s the end all of definitions, but I felt like it cleared up some of the confusion and mis-information I’ve seen about emerging faith.
How would you answer these questions?
Share your answers on your blog and then share a link back to it here and/or on Darren’s blog.
