Below are my picks by month of the blog posts I remember. As might be expected, some months it was difficult to choose even one and others it was tough find only one. I do not include homilies, as these are written in a different vein than posts; post being written spontaneously with no planning. I would be happy to have readers share their favorite post or posts in the combox.
December- True Knowledge Wounds Us
November- Jesus Makes Clean and Whole
October- Love is the only reason
September- Our on-going cultural embrace of non-being
August- "resistance to the annhilation of the human subject"
July- Of human rights
June- Why deacons?
May- YouTube Orthodoxy and Saturday miscellania
April- April begins, the snow continues, notes on ecumenism, and the ND controversy goes on
March- Patience takes time, being patient costs us time, but it is well spent
February- Abraham Lincoln's 200th
January- What sacrifice?
This year I posted 355 times, making 2009 the first year since I began blogging seriously in 2006 that I did not average at least a post a day. There are now 1,353 post on this blog. Who knows what 2010 holds? So, this wraps up another year on Καθολικός διάκονος. I pray that everyone has a great New Year's Eve!
Blogito ergo sum! Actually, as N.T. Wright averred, "'Amor, ergo sum:' I am loved, therefore I am." Among other things, I am a Roman Catholic deacon. This is a public cyberspace in which I seek to foster Christian discipleship in the late modern milieu in the diakonia of koinonia and in the recognition that "the Eucharist is the only place of resistance to annihilation of the human subject."
