Cathedral of Hope UCCSomehow the first half of 2017 is now behind us. As we enter the second half of the year, I thought it would be interesting to see what posts my readers viewed most often.

Among posts published in 2017, the top five (by view count) are

  1. Christian Alternative Facts
  2. Our Search for a Church is Over!
  3. The Immigrants Creed
  4. Review: Days of Awe and Wonder
