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.

From time to time, I like to dig back through the Empathy Mining archives and gather data on how my articles have been received over the years. Doing so often puts some wind in my sails and motivates me to keep pushing forward. That said, I want to thank all of you who’ve taken the time to read and share my thoughts. This endeavor has been more successful than I could have ever dreamed when I first started my little blog in December of 2015. Since my first post when my blog was just a start up private that I never really expected to last that long, through the years since Patheos took me on, I’ve written well over 200 articles. After taking some time to review them, I tallied 54 articles that have been shared more than 500 times on social media, 33 of those were shared more than 1,000 times. If you’d have told me in 2015 that any of my blog pieces would achieve that kind of readership, I’d have laughed at you. But here we are and I’m humbled by the support my readers have shown me. Again, I thank you.

I decided to compile a Top 10 list to reveal the all-time most popular pieces from the Empathy Mining Blog. Each title is a link you can click, which will open that article if you’d like to check some of them out.
