I received the Noblesse Oblige Award on April 27th from Ann Brock at This Old Black Church Blog. This is the first time I have received a blogger's award, so I am deeply humbled that someone as gifted as Ann has considered this blog worthy of recognition. I have logged some serious "woman-hours" at my computer. I started blogging three years ago, and at that time, many African Americans, particularly in the black church were not "into it" as we say. Now, however, there are some black folks doing some serious blogging, and I must admit I have had a difficult time keeping up on the latest developments, widgets, gadgets, tools, and social networks while maintaining a career, ministry, and family.
Here are a few accomplishments of this blog in accordance with the Noblesse Oblige Award rules:
Jesus Saves Ministries Blog has promoted biblical preaching.
