t’s hard to believe that today marks three years since I started this blog! I had no idea at the time I started it that I would enjoy such wonderful conversations with such a diverse group of readers.
While posting here has been sporadic at best in the past year, there have still been some really stimulating conversations, and some of you have really helped me think through some potentially difficult topics.
Thank you to all of my readers and commenters for making these three years a fun ride. While I’m busy with other ventures (like podcasting and a not-yet-ready-for-publication joint blog with my wife, as well as our foster/adoptive experiences and my regular musical work), I do hope to continue to spark some interesting discussion here on this blog.
In the meantime, may our loving Father richly bless each of you on whatever journey you find yourself. And may you find yourself growing deeper and deeper in an understanding of his love and the freedom that comes from life in him.
Until next time,

Steve,
I, for one, am glad you began the blog three years ago and continue to blog (however sporadicly), today. I do most of my blog reading via Google Reader and am always glad to read a new post from you. (As well as your always thoughtful comments on blogs like Kingdom Grace.)
Keep on keeping on, brother.
Congrats for hanging in there Steve! Look forward to reading more here.
Bill, you have no idea how much that means to me. Thank you, brother! You have encouraged me today.
Bob, thanks for hanging around here, too! You’ve been a great commenter.
Your blog is one of the best on the web, brother. Thanks for putting up with me out here. Keep your eyes on Christ!
Tony, you are a dear, dear friend and brother. I don’t have to “put up” with you at all. Thanks for being a faithful reader, commenter, and friend for…two years now, is it?
Steve,
You are always a blessing. Congratulations on 3 years, and I look forward to many, many more – either through the blogs or in person.
-Alan
I’m still reading, too…no matter the frequency of your posts! I check daily for something from your keyboard.
Alan, thanks for being a blessing to me, too. I have learned a lot from our conversations, and look forward to many more.
ded, you are someone I’m very glad our Father introduced to me. Thank you for your love, your companionship on this journey, and for desiring to fellowship whenever we can. You and your family are very special to us.
Congratulations, Steve. This blog has been the source of a number of blessings to me, not the least of which is a new friend.
Gordon, the feeling is quite mutual, brother. Thanks!
Congratulations on 3 years! I echo the sentiments above. I’m glad that you are writing and am thankful for the wisdom and encouragement you have shared.
Happy Third Blogoversary, Steve. I am an infrequent commenter, but do keep up with all your post through bloglines.
Here’s to many more thought-provoking posts!
I recall Nixon, nominating an older man to be an SC justice, commenting that a few years of Judge X was worth many more years of anyone else. The three years (and running, I hope) of your blogging are worth more to me than many more years of others I read. The Spirit works thru those who put themselves in play as you do. Stay open, sir! And I do look forward to more of the wisdom you convey.
