While You Were Celebrating

Monday January 4, 2010   ~   2 Comments

While you were fooling around on vacation you might not have given this blog the attention it deserves. ;-)

Just in case, here are the last several posts on at the blog:

Barna's End of Year Review
The Barna Group has just released four themes they see from their research in 2009. Read the excerpts below, check out the full article here, and come back to discuss.

Preaching Magazine Interview (Parts One, Two and Three)
I was interviewed by Preaching magazine about preaching (go figure) and reaching the young adults who are disconnected or disconnecting from church. It was a good conversation that I'm reproducing here in three parts.

Merry Christmas from the Stetzers
Everyone gets a Christmas card from my family!

Gallup on the Decreasing Numbers of Self-Identified Christians in America
In 1948, 91% of Americans identified with a Christian faith. In 1989, 82% of Americans identified as Christian. Ten years ago, it was 84%. This year, it's down to 78%. Check out the article and research coming out of Gallup.

How Protestant Pastors Spend Their Time
This is already generating a lot of conversation. Check it out.

Top Ten Theology Stories of 2009
Collin Hansen did a "top ten theological story" list for Christianity Today. He gets it (mostly) right. Here I interact with his list.

Biggest Changes in Chrisitanity in the Last Decade
Christianity Today asked several of us to answer, "What was the most significant change in Christianity over the past decade?"

Upcoming Sunday Preaching (or what used to be "Saturday is for Seminars")
Some of the places I'll be preaching in the coming year.

"may not have given this blog the attention it deserves"? Ed, I've always really loved you work, it wasn't until this post that I realized how much you loved your work. Just how much attention does your blog deserve? If i'm the only one that read that line that way then my bad, if not, well, here's to not taking ourselves too seriously in 2010. Keep up the good work!

Josh,

It deserves a visit twice a day. ;-)
