King for a Week – Common Grounds Online

Articles Collection cover image

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 Common Grounds Online, a group blog founded by Glenn Lucke, author of Common Grounds which I have reviewed here. The site seeks to continue the exploration begun in the book, though a person certainly does not have to read the book before he can enjoy the site. Glenn has gathered a good group of authors and there is always lots to read at the site.

And so I am glad to commend to you Glenn’s book, ministry and web site. For the next week you will be able to see the most recent headlines from Common Grounds Online 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.

    The Suffering of a Child

    It is always difficult to understand the ways of God. Impossible, even. This is never more obviously true than when we witness the suffering of a child. Many people would attest that few things pose a deeper challenge to their faith than to see a child suffering, especially if the affliction is terminal.

    Do You Board First or Last?

    There are some travelers who like to board an airplane at the earliest possible moment. There are others who prefer to board at the last. Some rush the gate the very second the gate agents announce that boarding has commenced, while some linger until they have sounded the final call.
