Profile

Name:Daniel
Home: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
About Me: I used to believe that evolution was reasonable, that homosexuality was genetic, and that people became Christians because they couldn't deal with the 'reality' that this life was all there was. I used to believe, that if there was a heaven - I could get there by being good - and I used to think I was more or less a good person. I was wrong on all counts. One day I finally had my eyes opened and I saw that I was not going to go to heaven, but that I was certainly going to suffer the wrath of God for all my sin. I saw myself as a treasonous rebel at heart - I hated God for creating me just to send me to Hell - and I was wretched beyond my own comprehension. Into this spiritual vacuum Jesus Christ came and he opened my understanding - delivering me from God's wrath into God's grace. I was "saved" as an adult, and now my life is hid in Christ. I am by no means sinless, but by God's grace I am a repenting believer - a born again Christian.

The Buzz

Daniel's posts are almost always pastoral and God centered. I appreciate and am challenged by them frequently. He has a great sense of humor as well.
- Marc Heinrich

His posts are either funny or challenging. He is very friendly and nice.
- Rose Cole

[He has] good posts, both the serious like this one, and the humorous like yesterday. [He is] the reason that I have restrained myself from making Canadian jokes in my posts.
- C-Train

This post contains nothing that is of any use to me. What were you thinking? Anyway, it's probably the best I've read all day.
- David Kjos

Daniel, nicely done and much more original than Frank the Turk.
- Jonathan Moorhead

There are some people who are smart, deep, or funny. There are not very many people that are all 3. Daniel is one of those people. His opinion, insight and humor have kept me coming back to his blog since I first visited earlier this year.

How I Give Out Blog Links...

I have perhaps the simplest, most pragmatic system you could imagine. I give out links to those blogs that I read. If I start to read a new blog, and it gets annoying trying to find the link to their blog - the next time I find it I copy it and add it to my blog roll.

Am I the only one who does it this way?

Nope. For the longest time my sidebar doubled as my "Favourites" tab. I've even got it organized.

That is my #1 way as well, unless of course someone shamelessly requests a mutual link.

Anyone on my blogroll is someone I've been reading for a long time and has impressed me by being consistently good and trustworthy. I guess that explains why my blogs are dominated by Reformed pastors and teachers. I aim to keep the list short so it doesn't become another meaningless list of "blogs I liked once." I hate removing links, even though I've been delinked and didn't take it personally.

Lest I sound elitist, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't make my own blogroll.

On the other hand, I will give a reciprocal link under "links here." Some of them are very good,and none of them are bad blogs.

Yup, that's how I do it. But my list gets bloated with blogs I no longer visit much, and I am also loathe to delink. Except for pecadillo. I de-link him regularly.

Also, I have found that I don't read nearly as much blog as I once did, so even my most visited links are not as visited as the once were.
