Does This Make Us UConn or Louisville?

by Michael Mckinley

As Ben pointed out in the comments, we're actually more like University of Louisville than Duke, in that we're a number one seed in the SBC Voices Blog Madness tournament.  I think we might be more like UConn, the fourth #1 seed that is maligned by the haters and feels the need to prove itself by winning it's first round game by the third largest margin in tournament history.


But I digress.  Go vote for your favorite 9 Marks-themed blog in Round 2... we need more books!

I Thought We Were Western Kentucky, Turns Out We're Duke

by Michael Mckinley

Well, this is a blow to my self-perception.  I've always thought of our humble little blog as the scrappy outsider, the contrarian voice willing to speak truth to power about meat sweats and the insidious paedo-baptist plan to undermine clean livin' one covenant kid at a time.  


Turns out, we're a number one seed in the SBC Voices Blog Madness.  

The bad news: as a contrarian with authority issues, I am forced to root against myself.  

The good new: if we make it through to other rounds, we'll be up against the Goliath that is Beth Moore.  I think she's been itching for a fight for a while now.  Cute baby pictures can't save you when Church Matters come callin'! 

Best news: the winner gets a honking big gift certificate to the Westminster Bookstore.  Maybe we could buy copies of this book and pass them out to the students.  

So head over and vote for your humble 9 Marks bloggers... we need the free books!  

The 9Marks blog aims to stimulate a helpful conversation among pastors, church leaders, and Christians about life together in the local church.
