2010 Kids Ministry Blog Madness

Round #1 is now closed and the top 16 blogs have advanced. Here is the link to vote in round two.

Vote for Your Favorite Kidmin Blogger

There are some great bloggers writing about children’s ministry. That’s why I put together the Big List of Children’s Ministry Blogs. It’s also why I complied the Top 10 Children’s Ministry Blogs last September. This post kicks off a friendly competition to let blog readers decide what is the top Children’s Ministry blog.

Here’s How It Works

Listed below are the top 64 children’s ministry blogs arranged in a four division bracket-style tournament. We will have three rounds of voting to pick an overall winner. This post is the first round. Sunday 21 March 2010 is when round #1 will close and the top picks in each division will advance.
You are free to vote your conscience. I would expect most people will vote for who they like or who most influences them. But you can also vote for the rival or your rival. The voting is restricted by IP address, so re-voting doesn’t help your cause. You are encouraged to stump for votes in the comments, on your blog, twitter, facebook, kids church, etc. Don’t be shy, I’m going to announce some prizes later.
