  2. I would also include the following blogs. I would consider them "legitimately influential". Of course, different elements with conservative Christianity would consider different blogs to come under your term "legitimately". Each of the following bloggers has a strong blog following. Each is respected by a large number of conservative Christians.

    Mark D. Roberts

    Ben Witherington

    Hugh Hewitt

  6. I might also mention a blog that has become important to me and I think "legitimately influential," John Smulo's SmuloSpace and also his Missional Apologetics.

  7. thanks for your encouragement, brad!

    Wayne, I read and appreciate Mark Roberts and Witherington and I've heard of Hewitt but have never read him. I'll sample him a bit.

    Rick, I think "Friend of Missional" may one day turn out to be quite significant. And thanks for your suggestions as well.
