With such diversity of beliefs, practice, and culture in the Christian faith, it's no surprise that Christians have a lot to communicate and share with one another. As a result, Christian blogs have become an increasingly popular form of discussion. Browse these Christian blogs to learn about the lesser-known traditions of Quakers, for example, or to discuss and discover other varied Christian perspectives on culture, politics, art, and more.
- The blogosphere can be a rude place, even in the religious community; people communicate things they would never say face-to-face. Be prepared to encounter this kind of behavior when surfing, and be especially mindful of the blogs your children might be reading.
- To find more Christian blogs, explore the blogrolls (lists of the author's favorite blogs) on the Christian blogs you already enjoy.
