King for a Week is an honor I bestow on blogs that I feel are making a valuable contribution to my faith and the faith of other believers. Every week I select a blog, link to it from my site, and add that site’s most recent headlines to the left sidebar of my site. While this is really not much, I do feel that it allows me to give honor where I feel honor is due.
This week’s King for a Week is Cerulean Sanctum, owned and operated by Dan Edelen. According to his blog, “Dan writes from his nascent farm while he labors on The Great American Novel and seeks to walk humbly with Christ.” The motto of Dan’s blog is “Cerulean Sanctum: Looking for the 1st century Church in 21st century America.” And that is exactly what Dan seeks to do – to challenge the church to model itself after the Biblical example.
One thing I can say about Dan, and something that is rare in the blogosphere, is that he actually finishes the series he begins. My friend Doug and I have laughed together about how many series we have begun only to have them fizzle and die. Dan begins ambitious series and actually seems to finish them. He writes articles that are biblical, challenging and occasionally infuriating.
And so I am glad to commend this site to you. For the next week you will be able to see the most recent headlines from Cerulean Sanctum in the sidebar of my site. I hope you will make your way over to the site and look around.
I continue to accept nominations for King of the Week. If you have a site you would like to nominate, feel free to do so by clicking on the “suggest” button below the King of the Week box. Thanks to those of you who nominated this week’s honoree.
