The statistics for 2010 are in for this site. I want to say thank you to all who supported this site with prayer and with participation. I trust this will remain a ministry to many in the year to come. I am thankful for such an outlet for doing theological reflection (and sometimes just some fun) and sharing resources for pastors, believers, and all who would read. God bless you all.

Final Thoughts
“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
As we head into 2011, looking back on 2010 and the ministry He has called us to, we give thanks. May many be safe in the arms of Jesus when He comes (1 Thess. 2.29-20) again as a result of the faith and witness He gives in our time.
Happy New Year and may Christ Jesus, the King of glory, be praised.
