January 14, 2012 Week In Review

This has been an exciting week for The Stretched Blog!  On Thursday, we moved over to our own domain (from the WordPress domain).  Traffic on the old and new sites remained high this week, and I’m looking forward to the week ahead where I’ll be reviewing The Circle Maker by Mark Batterson, Frank Chiapperino will be visiting the blog on Wednesday, and The Stretched Blog will be visiting The Point on Thursday.

This week was truly a blessing as we made the transition to the new platform.  Monday’s post featured my first eBook review of Michael D. Perkin‘s Manifesto on Being Myself.  Tuesday, I shared some of my thoughts from Matthew 6.  On Wednesday, Brandon Gilliland stopped by to share his thoughts on discerning God’s will.  The new platform was introduced on Thursday.  And we ended the week with another fun ice breaker question about going back to the future.

Your continued contribution to the blog through comments is greatly appreciated.  Your comments are what makes this Stretched Community!  Please remember to take the time to Subscribe to the NEW blog, so you can have Stretched delivered daily to your e-mail inbox.  Also, don’t forget to stop by the Jon Stolpe Stretched Facebook fan page.  Become a fan to keep up with some additional Stretched stuff.  I am sharing more blog highlights from other blogs that I read regularly.  I think you’ll find some great stuff here.  Thanks!

Here are a few of my favorites from around the blog world this week:

      …so thankful for you and your post this week!  I just saw that your dad is blogging.  Mine started a couple of years ago.  He’s not real consistent with it, but he does a lot of other writing for his job/ministry.  Congrats to your dad!

    I just found your blog from Michael Hyatt’s.  Congratulations on your new site – it looks great. Cleaner appearance than the old one.  I appreciate your suggestions and will check out the “Theology of a Teenager” by Heather Zempel as I have 3 teenage girls (out of my six children).

      So glad you stopped by today.  Please stop back again.

      Thanks for the congrats.  It’s been an adventure so far.  I feel like I have so much to learn (regarding this blogging thing).  Now it’s a matter of balancing my time and priorities as I move forward.

      3 teenage girls?  I can hardly imagine.  I have one of my own (out of 2 kids).
