King for a Week – Pro-Existence

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 (in theory) I select a blog, link to it from my site, and add that site’s most recent headlines to my right 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.

This week’s recipient of the award is Pro-Existence, the blog of Rick and Nancy Pearcey (and the official blog of Pearcey Report). Rick and Nancy have been family friends for as far back as I can remember and I can think of many times when, as a child, we would spend the day with them. I have long respected them as Christians and as cultural commentators. Rick has always had a knack for finding interesting news stories and for the past year or two has been linking them from The Pearcey Report. Now, with Pro-Existence, he is providing more first-hand writing from his pen (and, on occasion, from Nancy’s). I’d encourage you to make The Pearcey Report and Pro-Existence a daily or near-daily stop in your internet travels.

In the coming days you will be able to see the most recent headlines from this blog in the sidebar of my site. I hope you will make your way over 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. Thanks to those of you who nominated this week’s honoree.

    Three Levels of Sermon Introduction

    Though every sermon necessarily needs a beginning, it does not necessarily need a formal introduction. Though it has to begin somewhere, there is no rule that it must begin with some kind of story or illustration. A preacher can jump straight into his text if he so desires. Some do.

    The Most Pleasant Show on Television

    I rarely review, recommend, or even mention movies and television programs. I rarely do so because I am aware that tastes vary and so too do family rules and personal consciences. Not only that, but I am not very adept at understanding the themes or messages in visual media and wouldn’t wish to inadvertently lead…
