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

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.

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.

I think Jordon Cooper (www.jordoncooper.com) is a must, especially given the breadth and depth of his content.

I would have added Jamie Arpin-Ricci as well.

Thanks Rick for the encouragement!

Jordon Cooper, definitely! If anyone sums up the best of the emergent aesthetic it's this Canadian.
