2006 SBC Greensboro Convention Compilation Post

While all the SBC Bloggers are in Greensboro, someone had to stay behind a put a compilation post of their posts, so I guess this is where I fall in. I am currently monitoring about 30 bloggers, some of whom have not yet posted. Also included in this compilation are pictures, videos, news info, and anything I think would be worth linking to the 2006 Greensboro Convention. I will be updating this post regularly, so check back often to find out the latest posts by SBC bloggers and any news that may arise (note: the most recent blogposts are at the bottom of each person’s list). For those who want a little blog history on the IMB and Wade Burleson, you can access my compilation post on that over here.
