Old Blog Roll and Less Recently Updated Blogs

In an attempt to control the main page of the blog, I'm moving the old roll blog over here. This is where you can find blogs that are former (but not current) members of the unofficial PC(USA) web ring and blogs that haven't been updated in over a year that might still have some really neat stuff in their archives and are worth keeping around.

Viva! La Reformation!

A current news article from the denomination’s own press service refers to Bruce Reyes-Chow, Gradye Parsons, and Linda Valentine as our top three leaders.

And all the while, I thought that our top three leaders in the Reformed tradition were the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

You may think that I’m nit-picking, but the Reformation mainly occurred because of a rejection of hierarchy in the church. As Presbyterians, we need to be constantly vigilant about this.

BR-C,GP & LV are our top three office-bearers, not leaders. That mantel belongs to the Trinity.

Me and My bright Ideas

Okay, Fellow Presbyteers, here’s the skinny.

Somehow we can’t get people signed up to be contributors anymore to the site. However, there is another option. If you will send me your relevant Presbyterian articles, giving links to your blog page, I will post them unedited (except for spelling mistakes) and put a link to your page at the bottom of the posting.

I signed up for this gig about 18 months ago and I’m the only one who has been contributing on a regular basis. That kinda skewers the whole debate process, which I think wasn’t the intention of this website.

So, starting next week, if you send me your articles to pastor@erinpresbyterian.org and mark the subject line: “Presbybloggers” I’ll start posting them. I’ll also add an image to your posting.

I’m also going to go around the Presbybloggers listed and try to highlight a different Presbyterian blogger each day. That means I’ll lift your article straight from your blog and post it with the relevant linkages.

I hope that this will satisfy everyone and enable us to really discuss issues that face the Denom. I’ll still be the bumptious, grumpy, conservative curmudgeon I have always been, though.

Any questions or further suggestions????
