Carnival is Coming

A reminder that Christian Carnival XC (That's 90. Really. I looked it up.) will be appearing right here at Attention Span sometime Wednesday morning. If you've never participated before, I invite you to take part. Here's what it's all about:

The Christian Carnival is open to Christians of Protestant, Orthodox, and Roman Catholic convictions. One of the goals of this Carnival is to offer our readers to a broad range of Christian thought. Posts need not be of a theological topic. Posts about home life, politics, or current events, for example, written from a Christian worldview are welcome.
As the goal of this Carnival is to highlight Christian thought in the blogosphere, entries will be limited to blogs that share that goal. Blogs with content that is focused on a business, that has potentially offensive material Christians may not want to link to on their sites, or has no reference to distinctively Christian thought may not be included in this Carnival. There are other Carnivals that would be a more appropriate venue for that material. I realize that this will be a judgment call on the part of the Carnival administrator, and being human she may make mistakes. However, as the Christian Carnival is getting quite large, and it is sometimes questionable whether the entrants are seeking to promote Christian thought, I find this necessary.
We also expect a level of discourse that is suitable for a Christian showcase. Thus entries may be refused if they engage in name-calling, ad hominem attacks, offensive language, or for any similar reason as judged by the administrator.


To submit an entry, email your entry to this address along with the following information:

The name of your blog and a link to your main site.
The title of your post and the URL of the post.
A short (one or two sentence) description of the post. Your description may be edited or used just as it is.

Even if you don't want to enter, be sure to visit here on Wednesday and follow the links to a TON of great thinking and intriguing writing.
