HT: Justin Taylor »

Guest Post by Robert Sagers If you’ve spent any amount of time scouring the Christian blogosphere, you’ve likely encountered the near ubiquitous line at the bottom of many a post: “HT: JT.” That’s because Justin Taylor is so good—perhaps the best—at pointing us all to so many resources on the Internet, in print, and elsewhere. [...]

Kingdom People Guest Host: Robert Sagers »

My family and I are enjoying a late-summer vacation this week. I am grateful for my friend, Robert Sagers, who has graciously agreed to take the helm here at Kingdom People for the next few days. Robbie is a Ph.D. student at Southern Seminary and serves as Special Assistant to Dr. Russell Moore, the senior vice [...]

Back in the Blogging Saddle »

Back to blogging! My month away from the blog world didn’t keep me from writing a few posts here and there (even if they went un-posted). In fact, I found it easier to write blog posts last month. It is a peculiar feature of the human mind that, at times, we work better under pressure [...]

A Blog Sabbatical »

For the past two years, I have taken a break from blogging during the month of July. I have found that this time away has been spiritually and mentally refreshing. Though the short-term nature of the blogosphere makes an extended absence unwise from a blogger’s standpoint, my previous sabbaticals have been good for my soul. [...]

Covetousness vs. Contentment in Blogging »

These are my remarks at yesterday’s meeting of the Band of Bloggers 2010. You can watch the video of the event, including talks from Justin Taylor, Jared Wilson and Jon McIntosh here. Jesus once said, “One’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” Applying his words to blogging, we might say that [...]

Band of Bloggers 2010 »

Thanks to the tireless work of Tim Brister, there will be 4th meeting of the “Band of Bloggers” in conjunction with the 2010 Together for the Gospel Conference in Louisville, Kentucky. Two years ago, I attended Band of Bloggers and enjoyed meeting many other writers who seek to be G0d-honoring and gospel-promoting in their blogging efforts. [...]

So You Think You Can Write… »

Occasionally, I receive questions from blog readers who are curious to know how I wound up writing a book. Many bloggers have similar aspirations of writing for a larger audience. So questions inevitably come up: “How did you get published?” “What kind of proposal did you do?” “What is the key to getting a book [...]

The State of the Blogosphere »

When it comes to making predictions about internet usage and blog-reading, I am not a prophet nor the son of a prophet. However, in the past few years, I have noticed some recent trends in the blogosphere – developments that will probably become more pronounced as we enter the next decade. Because each of these [...]

Some Changes Coming to Kingdom People »

I am grateful that so many readers took my brief, four-question survey last week. At the start of my fourth year blogging here at Kingdom People, I needed to get some input from those of you who read this blog consistently. Because of your input, I’ve made a few decisions regarding the content here at [...]

Kingdom People Reader Survey »

Three years ago this week, I launched Kingdom People. I have enjoyed having a forum in which to share book reviews, prayers, quotes, personal thoughts and (hopefully) interesting interviews. As I look ahead to beginning my fourth year of blogging at Kingdom People, I would like to offer readers a chance to answer the poll [...]
