Six-Year-Old Story Makes September’s Most-Read List

CHICAGO, IL (October 3, 2007) – A 2001 story about a message delivered by President Glenn Palmberg at the 2001 Midwinter Conference was one of the most-read features in the September online Covenant News Service report.  

The article, “Palmberg Challenges the Church to Reach Out in Mercy,” was accessed more than 700 times.

“It is possible that creation of the new Department of Compassion, Mercy and Justice sparked additional interest in that general topic, leading online readers to search the Covenant website for related articles,” says Don Meyer, executive minister of Covenant Communications.

“It is not unusual to receive reader feedback on stories that are several years old, as those individuals most likely have located them through a Google or similar search process,” Meyer notes.

Other articles drawing the considerable attention include a report on professor Martin Marty’s lecture at North Park University, “What is the Life of Faith Amidst All the Other Faiths?” and a story concerning a prayer vigil on behalf of the “Jena Six.”
