Best of the Blog – Annual reports on the state of the blog

These annual review articles are me reflecting on what I felt were the highlights of the previous years blogging. If you want to get an overview of the whole output of this blog, these posts are definitely a great way of getting it without reading all 4000+ posts!

December 22, 2010

As I leave you for a well earned and very necessary blogging break, it is my custom to share with you a list of the most visited pages from all time, judged by the number of views received in the past 12 months. It is encouraging to me to see that there is a good [...]

Review of 2010 part 2

December 21, 2010

Today, I will conclude my review of 2010′s blogging. At the begining of June I shared notes from a sermon I preached, A People on a Mission. I also began some work on a planned online study guide for Raised With Christ. This included video footage and questions for people to consider or discuss in [...]

A review of 2010 part 1

December 20, 2010

The year began for me in Enfield Cineworld where I would of course spend most Sunday mornings, and many other meetings during the year. I love being rooted in Jubilee Church, it helps keep me sane! Tope’s sermon on prayer, and the prayer of blessing which began it helped set the tone for what would [...]

Blog Review 2008

December 16, 2008

In many ways, God graciously blessed this blog in 2008. Here are a few of the highlights: In January I took a break from blogging, but shared my most widely read blog posts each day, which actually continued beyond January. I did interrupt my break to post the following two posts, making January officially the [...]

Personal Review of the Year

December 15, 2008

It’s that time of year again. As I have done in previous years, I thought I would take the opportunity to reflect on the year that was. This post will consider personal matters, family matters, and my church. The year began with my regular tradition of putting the blog onto autopilot to give me time [...]

Review of the Blog – September to December 2007: John Owen and John Piper

December 22, 2007

During the months of September and October, I spent a lot of time quoting from a book Justin Taylor produced—a lightly edited John Owen. These can all be read on the category page for posts labeled “John Owen.” In November, I gave John Piper on N. T. Wright the same treatment. I also wrote a [...]

Review of the Blog – July to August: TULIP and Together On a Mission

December 21, 2007

Before going on a summer break, I ended with a post which expresses clearly the driving passion behind my life—I DON’T WANT BALANCE, I WANT IT ALL! Other than that, and the posts on the atonement I listed in yesterday’s review, July was totally dominated (and rightly so) by Together On a Mission. This conference [...]

Review of the Blog – May to June 2007: More Atonement Wars and Terry Virgo

December 20, 2007

May was not as controversial a month as I reported yesterday that April had been. I continued with the following posts on the atonement and the resurrection throughout May and also into June. In fact, there were a few posts on the atonement which spilled into July, and I have listed them here also. If [...]

Review of the Blog – April 2007: Atonement Wars

December 19, 2007

UPDATE – Steve Chalke has expressed his views more fully in a chapter in The Atonement Debate, and I have posted a response to this. Today I will continue my review of the last year’s blogging which we began yesterday. April was a very interesting month for me on this blog. So much so that [...]

Review of the Blog – January to March 2007: Preaching and the Voice of God

December 18, 2007

It’s time once again to review another year’s worth of blogging here at my place. I have made it something of a tradition to look back and reflect on the year that has passed. I have done this previously in December 2006, 2005, and 2004. The format is simple: I highlight some of the posts [...]

Review of the Year – My Life in Jubilee Church, London

December 17, 2007

For me, once I have prioritized my own personal inner life and relationship with God, then my dear family, a clear third place in my affections is given without a moment’s doubt to my local church. Family does come before the church, but of course our church is like an extension of my family and [...]

Review of the Year – The Warnock Family

December 16, 2007

The past twelve months have been relatively stable for us as a family. It is the first year for awhile that none of us have started a new job, or a new school (although Joel did move up from the school’s nursery class to reception). We have not moved, and we certainly haven’t moved church. [...]

Review of the Year – Personal Reflections

December 15, 2007

It’s that time of year again—the time when I reflect on the year that has been. I’m going to follow a structure in my reminiscing which will be as follows: In this post I will think about my own personal life, and in particular my relationship with God. In the next post I will consider [...]

Christmas Greetings and a Review of 2006

December 22, 2006

Here’s wishing all of you a great Christmas and a successful New Year where God blesses you richly in every way. Be prepared to be surprised, though, as God’s blessings don’t always look like we expect them to! This time of year my thoughts always turn both forwards and backwards. So I’d like—in what will [...]

The year in review

December 30, 2005

Its that time of the year when we look back, get all misty eyed and think about the year that was. This will probably be a long post, in it I will first reflect on the ridiculously flattering but also rather humbling level of readership that has come this way in 2005, then I will [...]

Its all about you Jesus……calvinism and worship

December 18, 2004

Well, this Christmas the carnival of the reformation has asked us to post about the centrality of Christ the “sola christus”. This is a request I am only too happy to comply with and helps bring a number of threads together that I have been posting on lately. The last thing I posted was a [...]
