The "Brent Sleasman" Post: The 2nd most Viewed of all Time here

I've been running this blog since 2013. Readership has increased and decreased in waves over the course of those five years.

The month in which readership reached its peak was, actually, January of this year, when I was commenting on the meeting to approve the ERC's new New Strategic Plan...and commenting on the plan itself.

The post which has had the largest readership, by far, is from 2014. It's title is, MY PERSONAL MISSIONAL MYTH: BUSTED.

I re-read the post before beginning this one and I was impressed because the post itself was decent enough but it generated a conversation similar to what might have appeared on Brian Miller's Emerging CGGC blog back in the day. People whose comments appeared in that conversation include current ERC staffer, Dave Williams, Western Region sage Phil Wilson plus Dan Horwedel from the Midwest Region and Jack Guyler and Dan Masshardt from the ERC.

Until this past week, the number of hits on that post was almost exactly double the hits on the second most read post on this blog.

However, Brent put, on Facebook, a link to my post on how his eNews article on Important Conversations will come to nothing. That link created oodles of interest...and a decent conversation on Facebook, though no comments were entered here.

Thanks to Brent, that post is now the second most viewed post on this blog, though still far from the most viewed post.

One comment: Brent is rare, if not unique, among CGGC people of significance in that he's open to conversation. Not only does he not seem to fear it, he encourages it.

There's some conversation on Facebook about where or not he's actually a CGGC mountaintopper.

I argue, rather convincingly, I think, that he is...and, that he's emerging as Lance's unofficial Director of CGGC Theology and Philosophy.

And, I'm comfortable with that. We could do far worse.

If you haven't seen the Facebook dialog, I recommend it to you.
