LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

A colleague told me yesterday that my post on “Why I am a Christian Democrat” was not only my most-read post ever, but was one of the most-read posts on the entire Patheos site in 2012. Wow. I’m pondering whether this post’s gratifying success might be pointing me toward my next book project. For now, I am just especially grateful for the new readers who have started following this blog as a result of that post.

Here is a list of the top 10 posts on my blog from 2012, which gives a nice overview of the types of topics I cover. I hope new readers will find something of interest that you haven’t read before, and that those of you who read these previously will consider sharing them with others who might appreciate them. Next week, I’ll be back to posting three to five posts per week, hoping to occasionally hit the sweet spot that will lead to the top posts of 2013!

1. Why I am a Christian Democrat

2. For Christians, Gun Control Should Be a No-Brainer

3. I’m Pretty Sure Today IS the Time to Talk About Gun Control

4. Fed Up with “the Church”? Try a Different One (Maybe Even in the Mainline!)

5. Six Ways to Be Hospitable Toward People with Disabilities

6. Eggsploitation’s Bad Science

7. Five Reasons I’m Ignoring Your Healthy Eating Advice

8. Five Really Bad Excuses for Parking in a Handicapped Space When You Shouldn’t

9. Why Allowing Parents to Choose Their Baby’s Gender is Wrong

10. Why We Take Our Kids to Church…Even When It’s a Hassle (guest post by Eleanor Michael)
