Flattered

My blogging buddy, Cindy Swanson, has nominated this site, Pilgrim Scribblings, as her favorite blog in the Best International Evangelical Blog category. I'm flattered and honored that she would feel this way. Please check out Cindy's blog, Notes in the Key of Life. Cindy and I have a unique connection because her husband Doug is the Baseball Chapel leader for the Rockford Riverhawks in the Frontier League. She writes:

The Evangelical Blog Award nominations are underway!


Here's your chance to go here and nominate blogs in several categories.

Here are the categories, and my nominations: (Note: There are some categories where Cindy didn't nominate a blog.

Best Evangelical Teen Blog

Best Evangelical Family Life Blog--

Best Evangelical Mother Blog--

Now, I admit I would love to even get nominated for one of these awards. However, my blog doesn't easily fit into any of the niche categories. I was going to suggest a new category: "Best Evangelical Culture Blog," but I was too late--Eric Ragle isn't considering new categories now, since nominations are already underway. My wish for a "culture blog" category isn't just selfish, either. There are so many wonderful blogs that could fit in that category...blogs like Lisa Samson's
Author Intrusion, B. J. Hoff's Grace Notes, Word Praize, Write Thinking, A Life in Pages, Charis Connection, Fiddler on the Roof and Miss O'Hara, to name a few. Blogs that encompass a variety of topics, but tend to focus on things like the culture, media, entertainment, music and books/writing.

According to the site: "Nominations will end January 5th. On January 6th the voting will begin and the winners will be announced January 16th."

Thanks again, Cindy!
