Whither Christian Blogging?

by Eddie 08.07.2010

At first sight, blogging seems easy. You set up a blog and then write down a few random thoughts along with a few links and Bob’s your mother’s brother. Actually, it isn’t as easy as all that; coming out with regular thought provoking posts is actually very hard work. For the most part, the best [...]

I always find Gary’s Rather Sad Blog to be thoughtful, and not at all sad. His latest post is a fascinating reflection on the Trinity and Social Media. I thoroughly recommend that you give it a read, but here is a short sample to give you an idea of what he is saying. We are [...]

Best Kouya Chronicle Blog Posts of the Year

by Eddie 29.12.2009

I thought I’d allow myself a touch of narcissism and work out which was my favourite post from Kouya Chronicle. Actually, in looking back over the last year’s production, I was struck by how much of what I have posted is rather forgettable. That being said, there  is some good stuff amidst rubble.

Blog of the Year

by Eddie 29.12.2009

Is it just me, or has blogdom become rather boring of late? There are lots of blogs out there, but very rarely do I come across anything that makes me leap out of my seat in sheer joy and wonderment. More and more I come across Christian blogs which fall into one or more of [...]

Blogging Code of Conduct

by Eddie 14.02.2009

It really is high time we developed a Christian ethic of blogging.
