Live-Blogging Tips

March 16, 2008

Over the past couple of months, I have been receiving some random requests for tips on live-blogging conferences.  First, I want to tell you that I am not the guru on live-blogging; that would be the other Tim–Tim Challies.  Second, these tips are merely suggestions and do not reflect a consensus or common opinion of [...]

New in 08: Book Reviews by Jason Meyer

January 6, 2008

Last year, I decided to make a greater investment in highlighting upcoming book releases with the purpose of directing interested readers to resources they could benefit from reading.

I’ve Got a Confession to Make

January 4, 2008

Ready?
Here goes.
I like Tim Challies.
And I endorse his book.
Even though he is a Canadian.
And no, he did not ask me to write this.

Georgia Baptist Convention on Southern Baptist Bloggers

November 21, 2007

I have been following the “wrap ups” of the various state conventions of the Southern Baptist Convention (more on that later), and it should not be to anyone’s surprise that some of the state conventions don’t like the idea of blogging or the democratization of the Southern Baptist voice. Whether it is the extra-biblical [...]

Blog Appraisals

September 20, 2007

Here is something I wrote for Said at Southern yesterday. Love to hear some feedback on this one . . .
Over the course of the past three years, I have encountered thousands of Christian blogs and currently subscribe to well over a hundred. Each day a new blog enters the blogosphere with [...]

TBNN has just reported that my blog (and perhaps yours) has been banned by the Pope.  In fact, P&P somehow made “The Sinister Seven.”
Here I blog, I can do no other . . .
