Dissertation:<\/strong> My committee has approved my dissertation for a public defense on April 25 at 4pm on the Princeton Theological Seminary campus.\u00a0 It\u2019s open, so you\u2019re all invited.\u00a0 That committee has also suggested many more revisions, which I\u2019m now in the process of making.\u00a0 I need to have two hard copies of the revised dissertation to campus two weeks before the defense, so that it can be read by those attending my defense.\u00a0 At the defense, I\u2019ll be encouraged to make more changes, and that version will be due at Princeton the first week of May.\u00a0 Then PTS will send it to a dissertation editor who will check all the formatting and tell me what changes to make.\u00a0 Then, sometime this summer, I\u2019ll mail three copies of the final-final-final version \u2014 on linen paper no less \u2014 to Princeton for binding and placement in the library.<\/p>\n

Rob Bell:<\/strong> My post<\/a> on Monday, February 28 on the Rob Bell-John Piper t\u00eate \u00e0 t\u00eate amoureux<\/em> was the most-read post in the history of my blog.\u00a0 By a long shot.\u00a0 I attribute that to two things: 1) Sarah Bailey added a paragraph from my post to her much-read online article<\/a> about the controversy; 2) lots of people were retweeting my post with comments like, \u201cThis is the best thing I\u2019ve read on the #robbell controversy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Invesp Rankings:<\/strong> They\u2019re a load of crap.\u00a0 Sometime you see the Invesp ranking flame on the sidebar of someone\u2019s blog.\u00a0 I used to have one, which ranked me among the Christian bloggers<\/a>.\u00a0 But I started to get suspicious when I noticed that I was always ranked either #28 or #43.\u00a0 Never anything else.\u00a0 As my traffic has risen over the past couple months, my Invesp rank has dropped.\u00a0 Here\u2019s how wrong they are: today Invesp reports that I have 68 subscribers to my RSS feed, but Google Feedburner tells me I have 1,721.\u00a0 So ignore those Invesp rankings.\u00a0 Technorati<\/a>, which gives this blog an authority score of 464<\/a>, is much more reliable.<\/p>\n

Ecclesileaks:<\/strong> You didn\u2019t like it.\u00a0 I heard you loud and clear.\u00a0 I meant it to be a combo of serious and fun.\u00a0 I\u2019m no Julian Assange.\u00a0 I\u2019ve given it over to another guy who wants to run with it.\u00a0 So if you think it\u2019s a good idea to expose the foibles of the church, you can email him at ecclesileaks@gmail.com<\/a>.\u00a0 And don\u2019t say I never listen.<\/p>\n

Michael Hyatt:<\/strong> He\u2019s a great blogger, to be sure.\u00a0 But his post<\/a> last week was shocking to me.\u00a0 He wrote that he spends more that $1,000 per month on his blog.\u00a0 That\u2019s crazytalk.<\/p>\n

Just wanted to get that stuff off my chest.\u00a0 Have a great Monday.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
