June has gone. Summer is in full swing here in Mountain View, Missouri.
For me, that means church camps and mission trips. And that means a slightly reduced writing rate. I post less frequently during these two months than any others.
But that doesn’t mean that fewer people are viewing my page. June was right in my average range for this year so far. I’m pretty encouraged by that.
Here’s a quick look at what June looked like.
In case you missed them, here are my top six posts for June:
- Hubble Deep Space Field
- The Difference Between Purpose, Vision, And Mission
- Book Review: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
- 8 Reasons Why I Love Summer Church Camp
- Book Review: The Seraph Seal by Leonard Sweet & Lori Wagner
- Using The Ecosystem Journals
Two of my book reviews made the list this month. That surprised me a bit. I wasn’t sure if my reviews were actually being read or not. It’s good to see that they are.
One of these posts is part of the Foundations Of Youth Ministry series. This is a series that I am extremely excited about. If you are involved in youth ministry, you may want to check out some of these posts, covering things they never really taught me in college.
My personal favorite post this month was My Favorite Stories From The Book Of Numbers. Which one was yours?

Cool stuff! I wrote about my blogging month here: http://bigb94.wordpress.com/2011/07/01/month-in-review-june-2011/
Also, I signed up with Booksneeze.com this month! I’ll be posting some reviews on my site!
Love reading your blog! Great stuff! And i bet you’ll love Booksneeze. It’s pretty much awesome!
I’m new to your blog thanks to the wonders of Michael Hyatt’s blog. I look forward to following along.
My top post for the month of June was about Bringing Consistency To My Blog (http://jonstolpe.wordpress.com/2011/06/06/bringing-consistency-to-my-blog/). My post from yesterday is already setting up to be my top post for July…it is a guest post by my wife about life’s detours. (http://jonstolpe.wordpress.com/2011/07/02/detours/)
Glad to have you! I just checked out your site also! Good luck finding your routine!
I have thought about doing Booksneeze too. I just haven’t decided I can commit the time to it yet.
Jeff, how often do you read for the program and what is the book selection like?
I’ve read probably three dozen books since I started. 1-2 per month. They have a pretty decent selection most of the time, but sometimes it dwindles. When that happens I wait a week to see what their newer books will be. I’m usually not disappointed. You can see a book selection even if your not a member on their website, I think.
I think it is cool that you had a couple of book reviews in your list. I was intrigued by The Seraph Seal review.
My blog had a great month – fueled by a series reporting on our Vacation Bible School and a giveaway that I did for my birthday. I wrote about the month this post: http://stevencribbs.com/top-posts-june-2011
I was surprised.
I followed your VBS series. Loved it!
Thanks Jeff. It was a challenge to write everyday bat VBS – long days at church and then writing late at night every night. But, I loved doing it and the results have been worth it.
