The latest Best of Me Symphony is up at The Owner's Manual. Head over there and check out the posts --- some great reading there.
OK, I'm terrible. The Carnival has been up since the 29th, over at ChristWeb. Did I put a link up? No. And I'm in it this time, too!
Seriously, it's a great carnival. Head over there and read it, and add a few of these great blogs to your daily read list.
The next Christian Carnival is going to be held at ChristWeb. If you want to be a part of it (and who doesn't?) email your entry to ChristianCarnival AT Gmail DOT com. You should include:
Matt Jones has done us all a great service in setting up a Christian Carnival Archives page. Head over there and take a look, and read some of the posts from days gone by.
My first carnival was #12. I plan on being in this one, and being more active in the future (I was in every one for a long time, then I got lazy). If you want people to read your stuff, you need to be a part of this carnival.
...to the Christian Carnival, that is!
With the move, and some of the really bad posts I wrote back at the old place, I haven't been in the Christian Carnival. Then I had time issues because of school, papers, and procrastination, so I couldn't get anything sent in.
The Carnival is up -- go there and read. There's some great stuff there.
Head over the The Owner's Manual for this week's edition of The Best of Me Symphony!
This week's theme is Monty Python, so you KNOW I had to get in on it. I entered my old post about my dear friend Nicholas Kristof and his total buy-in to the idea of the God gene -- a proposition that has been roundly refuted by both theologians and competent geneticists.
There is a boat-load of great posts over there -- so go over and check it out!!!
{EDIT} OK, so I forgot to actually put a LINK to the BOMS. So shoot me. At least I remembered a trackback!!

The submission deadline is Tuesday, December 14, 9pm EST.
I'm getting back into the Carnival thing, and I actually have a post or two that are worth submitting this time. This carnival does attract new readers to your site, so it's worth posting to. Now I have to get my own submission ready.
I'm trying to get my act together and participate in carnivals and symphonies more often. I'm hoping that this coming semester I'll be able to do more, with my classes only meeting Thursday through Saturday.
Anyway, the Best of Me Symphony will be at The Owner's Manual. If you want to participate (and who wouldn't?), email Gary at gcruse AT netscape.com with your info. Only requirement is that the post be two months old or older.

It's up at Behind the Times -- and I got second place!!! Woooo Hooo ME!!
I wouldn't be happy about coming in first loser if there weren't a bunch of great posts in this week's symphony.
Next week's effort is going to be at Yuma Tech Consortium, so go through those archives and find something 60 days old or older that you REALLY like, and send it in!
You worked hard on those posts -- they deserve to live again.

Don't forget about this one -- I'm sending my submission in now!
At Belief Seeking Understanding.
Part one is right here. And Part two is right here.
And my post is ... absent. Sorry. This has been a rough couple of weeks at school, trying to get things done in case I actually find EMPLOYMENT. Which hasn't happened yet.
Bugs me most because I didn't take a class I REALLY wanted to (History of the Reformation) because it met when I figured I'd be working. I should have just taken the class. {sigh}
Next week.
The Christian Carnival is up at Intolerant Elle. LOTS of great entries this week -- including my Mark 6:1-6 study.
Reflecting on the Carnival this week, it occurrs to me that my own blogging has been a little lax lately -- even after I promised some good stuff on the way. The reason is that I didn't get my paper done NEARLY as early as I should have -- in fact, as soon as I sign off here, I have to finish it! Hopefully I can get a few things ready to go this weekend, so that while I'm writing my next two papers, I'll still have some good stuff up here.
Classic Movies. That's the theme of this week's Best of Me Symphony. The Symphony is being hosted by Gary at The Owner's Manual. Email him at gcruseATnetscape.com
Pick out your best post that's two months old or older, and submit it. Get some mileage out of those posts!! You worked hard to write that stuff, and people deserve to see them again!!!
The Best of Me Symphony is up a The Owner's Manual, so head over there and check it out. This week is hosted by The Young Ones -- who I hadn't seen in a VERY long time! Of course, my early education in British comedy was through the PBS station in Washington DC (WETA), so that might explain it.
This coming Wednesday is the next Christian Carnival, and will behosted at Rebecca Writes. If you have a blog, this will be agreat way to get read, and possibly pick up readers in the process or highlight your favorite post from the past week.

I decided to try this one out -- after all, the Parableman said it was good, so how could it be otherwise!
There's some great stuff there, and I LOVE the Babylon 5 quote that is next to my entry. One day, maybe I'll write something about the spirituality of science fiction ....
This is also a great way to get some of your older stuff out there for people to read -- I'm pretty sure it has a different audience than the Christian Carnival, so a different group will hear what you have to say, too. Your entry has to be two months old, so take a look through the archives!!
If yer interested, email your submission to gcruse(at)netscape.com with the subject being Best of Me Symphony. Give the following information:
Post Title
Post Permalink
Author's Name (or handle)
Weblog Name (if not obvious from the link)
Submitter's Name/Handle (if different from Author)
Description of post and/or why this post is being submitted (That is, what about this post makes you think it is one of the best from the weblog).
This might also be a way for me to make up for having missed a few Christian Carnivals (like I did this week ...).
Head over to Parableman for the latest installment of the Christian Carnival. Jeremy puts a LOT of effort into this, and everyone who reads this blog should go check it out -- even though I didn't get squat done to enter into it. I thought about using my TWiCH for this week, but that would have been two weeks in a row that I did that, and I don't want to be redundant, and I don't want to repeat myself, either.
Wow, looking at the headlines here, I've got three Carnival-related headlines almost back to back to back. THAT won't look good on the headlines graphic I got from Feedburner! Have to do something about that.
ANYWAY: The Christian Carnival is going to be held at Parableman on Wednesday of this week. It HAS to be from the past week, and it HAS to be Christian-themed, and you HAVE to send the following information:
Blog name
Blog URL
post name
post URL
trackback URL for your post if you would like a track
backbrief description of post
Send your submission to jrpierce@syr.edu and make sure your subject makes it clear that this is for the Christian Carnival, or it will be deleted as junk mail.
I didn't notice a deadline, but to be safe I'd get it there Tuesday evening, Eastern time. Everyone should do it, because it's a great way to get the word out about your blog. Now I have to head off and try to come up with something good to post.
Head over to Beyond the Rim and check out the 30th installment of the Christian Carnival. There are a lot of great entries there. My favorites:
I think these two are my favorites out of the folks who aren't on my blogroll. Of course, Donald, Matt, Rebecca, Hal, and Jeremy have their usual excellent articles over there, but you should have read those already. You DO check out the blogroll here, don't you? ;-)
And, of course, I have something there, too. My TWiCH about the French Revolution is there. But I KNOW you've read that one already.
I almost forgot, and the deadline is looming. My post is going in as soon as I submit this posting.
This week's Carnival is at Beyond the Rim... So, be thinking about submitting an article or getting your blogger friends to submit an article. Email your entry to beyondtherim at meisheid.com and include the words Christian Carnival in the Subject line. It helps my SPAM filter and my message sorter.
Please also send:
The name of your blog:

The name of your nominated blog post:
The URL of your nominated blog post:
A brief description of the nominated blog post:
I also want to suggest that you use the ability of your mail client to request a read receipt. That way you will be sure I got the submission. For all those not requesting a read receipt, I will be emailing a confirmation of receipt. If you don't get a confirmation, either through a read receipt or confirmation reply, I didn't get your submission. It may have been eaten by the random bit bucket.
Submission deadline is Tuesday at 12 midnight EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) or there abouts.
... and I'm not in it. And I had a perfect post to send, too. Now I have to come up with something better.
Anyway, head on over to Digitus, Finger, and Co. and read some of the outstanding posts that were submitted this week.
The Carnival has arrived at Fringe. Stop by and check it out -- AND I have a post there! VftP returns to the carnival -- vacation really has helped me get my act together.
There are some outstanding posts there -- I'm off to read tight now. Go ye, and do likewise.

And I'm ON TIME!!!!! YAAAY ME! I can even get something sent in, so I'll be IN the Carnival this time, after a long absence.
The Christian Carnival, that is!
This coming Wednesday, July 21, is the next Christian Carnival, and will be hosted by Mr. Standfast. If you have a blog, this will be a great way to get read, and possibly pick up readers in the process or highlight your favorite post from the past week.
And once again, I miss the deadline. Sigh. Head over to Mr. Standfast and check out the Carnival. Maybe vacation will help me get my act together.
Actually, it's probably been up a little while. I've been so wrapped up in my own blogging, and commenting on the ongoing controversy at this years SBC Convention, that I forgot to check my email and most of my blogroll!
He's done it in two parts, but the poor guy got 20 posts his first time hosting!! Head over to Belief Seeking Understanding and read some of these posts!
Maybe next week, I'll actually have something in it! If you're thinking about doing it, but haven't, I have noticed a big jump in hits when I have something in the Carnival -- and more than a couple new subscribers to my feed! I'm not running Jollyblogger numbers yet, but I'm working on it!

I missed the deadline AGAIN, so nothing from me this week (next week, promise!). Head over to ChristWeb anyway and read some of the great stuff out there!
I know a lot of people who won't be happy about what Jollyblogger had to say about the whole Harry Potter controversy. I'm just glad someone is seeing things from a new perspective.
Back of the Envelope has a great article about eternal security and God's transcendance of time. I've had some problems getting there through that link, though, so you may just want to click the link in my blogroll and get there that way.
And I promise I'll have something there next week!!

Head over to Parablemania for the Christian Carnival -- 15 Christian blogs that are outstanding reading!
(oh, and I forgot to mention in my previous post -- 100 posts!! WOO HOO!!!)
Head on over to Back of the Envelope for this week's Christian Carnival. I've got to say, every time I read one of these, I find new blogs to read. Pretty soon, I won't have time to do anything but read blogs and write mine.
HEY YOU!!!!!
Yeah, you. Sitting there eating Fritos and writing your blog. You want fame? You want fortune?
Then get a real job. You want people to read your blog? Then send it in!!!

Do that, and before you know it the blogosphere will be singing your praises .... well, they'll know who you are, anyway. Hey, it's a start! So get writing, and send it in!
The Christian Carnival is up over at Spare Change. I've never read Spare Change before, but that may have to change (no pun intended!) -- it's a great, well-written blog. There are some great entries over there -- including several from blogs on my blogroll! My article on Fundamentalists and Evangelicals from the 6th is up over there, so tell your friends (or your enemies, I'm not picky!), and head over there and read some great stuff from around the blogosphere!
The Christian Carnival is up over at Parablemania. My first article about The Jesus Factor is included, along with some outstanding entries from all over the blogosphere. Check it out!
Hey folks! Just a heads up that the latest Christian Carnival is up right now. I entered my Today in Church History article from a few days ago (another one is on it's way this evening!). I'm even first on the list! There is some great writing over there, so head over and check it all out! I particularly liked this article about evolution from Patriot Paradox. Haven't finished reading them all yet, but there is some GREAT stuff out there.
