I want to personally thank all of you for such a great 2011! This blog and website has been in existence for over 10 years, but it was only this year that I decided to start taking it seriously.<\/p>\n
Last January, I was averaging about 50 visits per day. This December, I averaged over 1400 daily visits. That’s a 2800% increase! While I could chalk this up to learning a lot about blogging (which I did<\/a>), or learning a lot about theology<\/a> and Scripture (some of which is documented on this blog), most of this increase is due to you – my friends and fellow blogger\/writers in the online community.<\/p>\n Thank you all for being a part of the Till He Comes blog. I am looking forward to what we all learn together in 2012.<\/p>\n Here are some highlights from this past year:<\/p>\n Notice any trends? You all like C. S. Lewis, and some of you like to read sermon manuscripts. Hmmm… I wonder if I should focus more on such things in the future, as these are two of my passions as well.<\/p>\n You make blogging worthwhile, enjoyable, and challenging. I wish I could give you some sort of gift or reward, and you are the ones who make this blogging community what it is. Thank you. (Some of you, by the way, need to get a Gravatar<\/a>. \ud83d\ude09 )<\/p>\n I look forward to everything in store for 2012. It looks like it’s going to be quite a year for all of us!<\/p>\n Thank you all for being a part of the Till He Comes blog. I am looking forward to what we all learn together in 2012.
