Thanks to all our regular readers and stumble-upon visitors for continuing to make Her.meneutics a lively, exciting blog to be a part of! The editors here especially want to acknowledge some new bloggers who have covered topics that matter and know how to start good discussions: Jennifer C. Grant is a mother of four and columnist for the Chicago Tribune. Anna Broadway is a San Francisco-based writer and the author of Sexless in the City: A Memoir of Reluctant Chastity. And Hannah Faith Notess is the editor of Jesus Girls: True Tales of Growing Up Female and Evangelical, and managing editor of Response magazine. Look for more good work from them in the coming weeks.
