One of my goals for this site is to interact more with other children’s ministry bloggers. To make that happen, I’ve made three major upgrades to my website, just for you.
- Children’s Ministry Blog Aggregation: I’ve added a new page that lists a massive blogroll and the latest posts from every children’s ministry blogge I know. To date I’ve found 40 blogs for this list. This page is linked in my main navigation menu, so feel free to link that page directly from your blog. If you’re name is not on the list email me at TonyKummer@gmail.com
- Comment Luv Plugin: This little tool pulls the latest post from your website’s RSS feed and automatically adds it as a signature in your comment. This gives readers another chance to discover your blog.
- Top Commentator Plugin: This script takes the top 7 comment writers from the blog over the last 30 days and gives them an automatic link in the sidebar. These links do pass Google PageRank and will drive some traffic to your blogs. So, join the conversation.
My hope is to generate more reader engagement and community. Remember it’s us children’s ministry types that are always preaching learner participation.

Cool stuff Tony. You do a great job in building a readership on your blog. Are these plugin features configured specifically for your current blog client or can they be used on other platforms, such as blogger, etc?
Glen Woods’s last blog post..wrestling with hope in a world of despair
Glenn - thanks again for your encouragement. Blogging is the main way I network with other children’s ministers.
There features run on 3rd party widgets that I’ve installed into my hosted Wordpress blog. So they don’t work for Typepad, Blogger, or Wordpress.com - Their might be something comparable out there, but I haven’t seen it.
