As with most blog websites, much of what I write is inspired not only by real life issues, but also by reading others’ stuff and thinking about what I have read in relation to my own ideas.
Here, then is a list of links to the blogs and other sites I visit – some more than others – so that you can check them out too. You’ll notice there is a heavy emphasis on Grace in most of these sites; other than saying that, I’ll not put any comments about the sites; I’ll just let you form your own impressions.
Enjoy!
