So i’ve been reading a great book by Mark Driscoll, Confessions of a Reformission Rev.: Hard Lessons from an Emerging Missional Church.

Mark is really cool, and i want to be like Mark, except that i don’t cuss, and don’t particularly want to start. But anyway, he says this in his book:

Over the years, I’ve just accepted that if I do not quickly open the back door when God is trying to run people out of our church, I am working against God by keeping sick people in my church so that they can infect others. Indeed, the church is a body, and one of the most important parts is the colon. Like the human body, any church body without a colon is destined for sickness that leads to death.

What do you think about that statement? Do you agree or disagree?

I have recently added a new feature to the sidebar of my blog, listing the most popular posts.

It uses a complex (or if you understand it, simple) mathematical function to decide the popularity of posts. Right now it is changing a lot because it is just starting to gathering data. i expect it in another week or so to settle down and quit shifting around so much.

But that led me to be curious…what is your single favorite blog to read?

Just one, not loads of them, and not your complete blogroll. Just one.

Oh yeah, and i know nathandiehl.com is your favorite, so it is eliminated…what, other than nathandiehl.com is your favorite?
