Rising Up While Getting Deeper

July, 2012, was a banner month for The Deep End, as far as the number of views this site received. The previous record for most views in a month was broken – and by a lot! While the number of views has been rapidly rising for a while now, something happened in July to really kick things into gear. I wish I could say I knew what it was. I’m thankful to the Lord for allowing me to keep posting, and I’m grateful to everyone who subscribes and reads. If you find something interesting here in The Deep End, take a deep breath, swim around for awhile, and leave a comment or two.
In celebration, I’m going to post the links to the category called “Arise” which contains a series of posts about the account of Naboth’s vineyard. The idea for these posts came directly from R.G. Lee’s famous sermon, “Payday Someday,” which is one of my all time favorites.
