This month marks my two-year anniversary of blogging.  It’s become something of an addiction since.  Here, in no particular order, are a few of the posts that I consider my personal favorites:

However, regardless of the posts I think are best, the almighty interweb has made clear which one of my posts is actually the most significant.  Far and away the most viewed post I have is this one.  Thank you, Google image search!

Rising Stars?

Within the contemporary landscape of theological scholarship who do you think are the rising young scholars to pay attention to?  Who do you think will be among the next generation of great theological minds?  I’m thinking of people who as of yet of produced one book or less.  Somewhere in that range of relative newness.  Here are a few of my choices:

Around the blogs

There are quite a few notable posts around the sphere right now. 

  • David Congdon emerges from his seemingly interminable blog-slumber to give us some excellent overviews of the Envision ’08 conference on evangelicals and political action. 
  • Eric also alerts us all to some information on some banal thing called the U2charist. 
  • Scott Stephens’ new guest-post on the dangers of Obamania at F&T is quite provocative.  So provocative in fact that it seems to be drawing quite a bit of heat in the comments. 
  • Phil points us to Brevard Childs’ new (posthumous) book on Paul which looks quite interesting indeed.
  • James gives a great discussion of theological integrity according to Rowan Williams.
  • Steve Holmes has a very provocative and helpful post on the Christian duty to find error attractive (also something of a Williamsish theme).
  • And finally, David Horstkoetter also seems to have procured a rather fascinating map of heaven, giving us clues about the life beyond.
