From the beginning, the forums have been one of the most interesting and difficult things about SI. Their interesting yet troublesome character is due in part to elements of Internet culture inherent in them. But that character is no less due to the fact that we, as Bible-believing Christians, have truly unique motivations and restraints to consider in shaping forum life.

It seems to be a day for firsts. SI’s first change in leadership at the top. My first go at leading anything remotely like SI. And for many of you, I expect, a first impression of what the new guy is like. I’d love to give you a classic for all time. I offer this instead.

The new owner is Aaron Blumer. No, that’s not the guy who has been editing the articles, running the advertising, and contacting authors. That is Adam Blumer. Aaron is his older brother.

The long-awaited day has finally come. I am stepping out of SI and handing it over. One year ago, I was sent out by my home church to plant a new church in downtown Denver. It soon became obvious to me that my time at SI was coming to an end.
