Reading Restless Pilgrim just got easier…

postmanI post on this blog every day, but not every post is especially substantial.

On Mondays I post a video of Christian music.

On Wednesdays I share a quotation which I feel teaches some truth and is marked by wisdom.

On Fridays I post something light-hearted on the last day of the workweek to sustain good cheer and to usher in the weekend.

On the remaining days, I write some short posts, but I typically aim to write at least one substantial article each week, tagging it with the featured tag.

I was recently chatting with friends and a couple of them said that they come to my blog specifically for the more substantial articles and only visit the site periodically. In light of this, I wanted to explain to all readers how to best consume these articles if this is what you prefer.

Highlights Newsletter

For those who only periodically visit this site, but still want to stay abreast of the more substantial posts, I would recommend subscribing to the monthly newsletter. If you would like to sign-up for the newsletter, simply fill out the form below:

[wysija_form id=”3″]

I will only ever send out one email each month, promise!. In these emails I highlight my favourite posts from the last calendar month:

Featured Menu

Another way to consume the more substantial articles is to use the menu system at the top of the page. I’ve recently made a couple of changes to menu layout to make this easier:

The “Featured Articles” menu contains two entries, which allows readers to only view the more substantial articles I’ve written. All other posts, such as the music and quotations, will be filtered out.

How do you read Restless Pilgrim? Is there something else I can do to make it easier for you to consume the content?

Read More Books Now!

So I just signed up for Brandon Vogt’s “Read More Books Now” video course:

Brandon

The course comes highly recommended from such notable people as Dr. Peter Kreeft. I bought the course outright, but Brandon is also offering a deal where payment is postponed until the end of the course so that you don’t have to pay anything if you don’t end up doubling the number of books you read. Pretty sweet deal 🙂

Today is the last day of the sale, so if you’d like to join me in learning how to read more books and retain more of their content, head on over to Brandon’s site, ReadMoreBooksNow.com.

New Book Has Arrived!

Last week Patrick Vanderpool‘s new book, Traditions of Men, landed on my doorstep! I had been doing pretty well on my reading list so I figured I sneak in another book which wasn’t on my 2013 canon 😉

Screen Shot 2013-05-16 at 11.19.45 AM

I’m currently finishing off Philosophy for Dummies, but once that is done I’ll be reading Traditions of Men and I’ll endevour to put up a review shortly afterwards.

The article New Book Has Arrived! first appeared on RestlessPilgrim.net
