The Future of the Oswald Chambers & Joel Osteen Threads [Caucus & Ecumenical]
FR | 7/6/13 | Vision

Posted on 07/06/2013 2:12:33 PM PDT by Vision

(Please only post if you are on the Oswald Chambers and/or Joel Osteen threads ping list or read them daily.)

Hi everyone, I begin a new job this week and it will become hard to post the Daily Reflections with Oswald Chambers and the Today's Word with Joel Osteen threads every morning.

To give you some history, the Chambers thread is an institution on Free Republic. I began posting it sometime around 2006 (if my memory is correct) and I believe I have the longest tenure of posting it on FR. I created the Osteen thread roughly four years ago.

I'm willing to keep these going but wanted to let everyone know once upon a time this responsibility was passed around. And if I keep them going something will have to change.

The options:

Do people care if these threads go away? (I'm just curious about the demand.)

Is anyone committed enough to take over posting the Chambers and/or Osteen threads every morning?

In the worse case I may be able to continue posting them, however they would be posted at night and the Osteen thread would be a day behind it's current message.

I thoroughly enjoy Oswald CHambers every morning. I used to comment but lately have done more of the reading only.

I apologize for not responding more.
Add me to those who would sorely miss this thread....

Not on the lists, but have to agree. Osteen should go.

This is a Caucus & Ecumenical thread. That means:

Caucus threads are closed to any poster who is not currently and actively a member of the caucus group.

Ecumenical threads are closed to antagonism.

I am still trying to figure out why someone who posts threads about Oswald Chambers would also posts threads about Joel Osteen.

I always read them when logos posted them, he posted them for years and I enjoyed them.
I am not a member of this caucus so you might want to have my comment pulled.
