Dear Reader, I have been blogging since the summer of 2007 and this is my 115th post, so I thought it high time I thanked you, dear reader, for taking time to read the Holloway Quarterly. Thank you.
I am sure that I know some of you personally, but there are many readers whom I have never met. I know this, in part, because of the places you live. The top ten countries that readers are from (or living in) are:
There are predictably popular topics to write about, but I tend not to focus on them. For example, being a Christian blogger I know that I can get a lot of hits for a post about gay marriage or abortion. Although I have written about these issues I know blog posts are not the best way to engage someone of a different opinion so I tend not to bother. The other area I attempt to remain silent on is politics. Sometimes I want to weigh in, but hold back. This is mostly because political blogging is so reactionary and I know that my instant reaction is not always right nor would it be well put.
The most important motivation for my blog is honoring Christ. And that means watching what I say and it means making Him the most important topic. I don't always succeed in this, but I pray that HQ is a God-honoring blog, an encouragement for believers and a challenge for unbelievers.
Here are the top nine (why does it always have to be ten?) most popular posts on this blog:
