King For A Week – JD Wetterling

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 my left sidebar. While this is really not much, I do feel that it allows me to encourage and support other bloggers while making my readers aware of other good sites.

The first article I remember reading written by J.D. Wetterling was a tribute to his father posted in honor of Father’s Day (you can read it by clicking here and scrolling down to the entry from June 17, 2005). I saw immediately that he is a very talented writer. He posts only once per week proving the old adage that less is more. He has written for such publications as The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times and World Magazine. His book, “NO ONE…” Finding Certainty in an Uncertain World is due to be published later this year by Christian Focus Publications.

For the next few days you will be able to see the most recent headlines from J.D.’s site 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.

    It Is Not a Complimentary Gospel

    I think we have all felt the temptation to modify the gospel, to preach a gospel that is inaccurate or incomplete. I think we have all felt the desire to avoid the reproach that may come upon us when we preach the whole gospel and true gospel—the gospel that is so very bad before it…
