WordPress informs me that I now have 50 people following the blog. That is fantastic! I know there are more who use google reader and such but this still felt like a good time to thank you all.
I’m writing this blog because I want to work my way through the whole Bible. Not because I want to have a ton of followers or snag a book deal from it (though I am writing an eBook. Stay tuned!). I just want to do it.
And the fact that so many of you read along and contribute makes it a much more enjoyable experience.
You encourage me.
You keep me going.
You give me great things to think about.
So thank you. Thank you for reading, for commenting, for sharing, and for generally being awesome.
I know there are a lot of you out there, leave a comment and say Hi. If you have a blog, go ahead and put down the link to your favorite post. I’ll stop by and leave a comment!
Have a great weekend!
The Whole Dang Thing 
Congratulations. The Word of God never comes back void, so keep moving forward. You’re doing a great job. And since you asked, I have two blogs, http://www.americanpsalms.com and http://www.thinkthisnotthat.net Thanks so much!
Thanks! I liked the wrestling post. And I think the idea that everything we do makes a difference is so helpful!
Thanks, JBen. I appreciate you stopping by my blog.
Just thought I would leave a quick comment letting you know that I enjoy your posts as well and am not counted among the 50 if Google Reader users are not included. I would guess there are many more like me!
Thanks for sharing and for all of your good work!
I’m so glad you like it. I have no plans to stop!
I am one of those 50, but I actually use Google Reader more often now.
Hi, I’m Rebecka! I’ve been reading your blog since the end of Deuteronomy and I love it. I don’t have a blog of my own, so there is nothing for you to comment on, I’m afraid 😉
Thanks Rebecka! end of deuteronomy eh? A newbie! Welcome to the family!
Yes, I guess I’m the baby here. Good thing I’m cute 😉 I mean, thank you!
I’ve been following for a few weeks. You’re welcome to follow back at http://jonstolpe.com (Jon Stolpe Stretched).
I subscribed recently and am looking forward to reading more. Here’s a post I think you’ll enjoy: http://www.outsidetheratrace.com/2011/11/proper-use-of-null-hypothesis-when.html
I love your avatar. Excited to have dinner with you guys next week!
Ben,
One that I have been following for quite a while is a journal by a college pastor named Ben Courson. He has a wide range of stuff topics, but he always has some great stuff to say. http://bencourson.com/
Hi! I’m not sure if that count includes those reading off the RSS feed as I myself am. I continue to love your large-scale view of the themes and overall messages of the Old Testament.
Hello! I honestly can’t remember how I came across your blog – perhaps through a link on http://bigbible.org.uk/? At any rate I’ve been following on Google Reader and thoroughly enjoying your comments on each chapter. Keep going! (PS I blog occasionally at http://aligledhill.com and http://bigbible.org.uk)
Man, I think I left a comment at Big Bible over a year ago. It was one of the first times I promoted the blog. I have a couple of friends from across the pond now!
