…by visiting the Carnivals, which showcase the week’s best posts from bloggers out there working hard for you readers.
Pete Holiday, who must be quite popular because he’s bringing me a lot of traffic, hosts the Carnival of the Vanities. I submitted Shame on the World, and he got a kick out of one of my favorites, Memo to White Conservatives.
Jeremiah, whose blog design I considered stealing, has the Christian Carnival this week. I submitted Faith Talk, a post I want to expand on soon.
I recommend Samantha’s submission, Single Sin. It’s in response to a post at JollyBlogger, which is in response to Albert Mohler’s assertion that remaining unmarried for the wrong reasons is sinful. Mohler is the president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. This is an issue near and dear to me because I’m still a single. 
(I’m not really sad. I’d like to be married, so I hope it’s in His plan.)
There’s a lot of good blogging going on out here, folks, but we bloggers understand there isn’t enough time in the day to get to it all, is it?
Update: The sentence in parenthesis means I’m not sad about being single; I’ll serve the Lord in the most useful way. If it means remaining unmarried, I’ll follow Paul’s example. I’m reminded of a still-unpublished essay I was too lazy to shop around about being single. (Marketing your writing to magazines is hard work.) Maybe I’ll post it tomorrow. I think it’s pretty good.
Also, the Watcher’s Council is looking for a new council member:
Due to a family emergency that has torn his blogging schedule asunder, Bill at INDC Journal has decided to step down from his seat on the Watcher’s Council. It’s been great having him on board and I wish him well, but now that he has decided to step down, there is one open seat and I need to find a blog worthy enough to fill it. Anyone that has a blog, please read the up-to-date version of the rules here and contact me if you are interested in applying for membership. I plan on choosing a replacement in time for that person to participate in the September 14th nominations process and that week’s vote.
If I had the time…
Update II: Albert Mohler has a web site and a “weblog” on Crosswalk.com. This is Part I and Part II of what started the discussion. I’ll get back to this issue later.
