Confessional Lutheran theology, hagiography, philosophy, music, culture, sports, education,
and whatever else is on the fevered mind of Orycteropus Afer

The BBOV Springs Forward
The Big Blogroll O' Vark®™©
This update comes partially from referrals and partially from my keeping my eyes open on Facebook. I found some of these gems either through Networked Blogs or through postings or links in my news feed.
If you're not sure what to make of the BBOV or wonder about the benefits of being listed and of listing others' blogs, please read the first three links under Aurous Effluence in the sidebar. Those who'd like the Big Blogroll O' Vark®™© can either email me or copy the list from the Alley's source code (click View | Page Source or Control+U in Firefox or View | Source in Internet Explorer).
CONFESSIONAL LUTHERAN BLOGS
Newly Listed
Those who read Another Long-Winded Pasquinade are probably like me: They appreciate all that Tim Schenks writes and they wish he'd write a bit more often. For in spite of the title, the author not only pokes fun from time to time but also does a good job of incorporating church history into his interpretation of present practices.
Former followers of A Blonde Moment will enjoy the author's new blog "Consecutive Odds." Now we just need to persuade her to write more.
Do Pastors Dream of Electric Sheep? I can't speak for all of us, but I've dreamed of just about everything else under sun and moon. However, I do try to keep up on how technology influences the pastoral office. This blog, which takes its name from a Philip K. Dick story*, helps the process, offering "theology, technology, & pastoral care, with a Lutheran twist."
*Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? This story inspired the movie Blade Runner.
Gnesio Online Magazine of Lutheran Theology is a full-featured and sophisticated web offering. It features multi-media, iPhone and iPod apps, and solid Lutheran writing. If you're wondering about the name, the Greek γνήσιος (gnesios) means genuine or authentic. It comes from the party of Gnesio-Lutherans, those who resisted doctrinal alterations initiated by Philipp Melanchthon and his followers. You can also follow the Gnesio Facebook page.
Step into The Pastor's Study and venture "inside the mind of a Confessional Lutheran pastor, husband, father, and sinner." Here Pastor Matthew Ruesch continues in Wisconsin the writing he began as The Minnesota Lutheran.
Meet the Queen Mommie, aka Emily Cook. This self-professed "Recovering Perfectionist, Reforming Tom-boy, Rejoicing Mother, Redeemed Sinner" has style and wit to spare — not bad for a pastor's wife and mother of six.
A Bit of Change
Although he still writes articles de ecclesia et liturgia (on Church and Liturgy), Fr. Tim May decided to expand the title to match an expanded arena of blogging. So from now on, you can read the newly-named (but same URL) May's Blog. See the post Changing the Name for the details.
FINALLY ...
For all those enrolled in the BBOV, links back are certainly appreciated. And don't forget that all of those listed benefit when you use the entire blogroll. Also, if you'd like to graphically point to the Alley and the Big Blogroll O' Vark®™©, you may use the above design from St. Charles the Illuminous or one of these blog buttons:
Finally, if you own or know of a Lutheran blog demonstrating a quia confessional subscription and would like me to consider it for inclusion, please leave a comment. And again, for more information about why this stuff benefits confessional Lutheran blogging, morality, and other worthwhile endeavors, please check out the first three links under Aurous Effluence in the sidebar.
