67. Historical Figures

Hello and welcome back to this month's new post at the "Celebs" blog! Our most recent posts have almost all been multi-parters, with two on music, one on TV competitions, two on acting, and one on sports in the last six months. That trend continues today, as we examine a trio of reader-suggested historical figures …

66. A Musical Mash-Up, Part Two

We're a few days beyond Valentine's now, but good news for you: I have a bouquet of freshly recommended celebs for you anyway! As with last month's entry, all of our subjects this week are known primarily for their musical pursuits. Secondarily but more directly important for our purposes, they may also have connections to …

65. A Musical Mash-Up

It's that time, readers--the first post of the new year here at the "Celebs" blog! As with the last few posts of 2022, today's entry is going to look into the religious affiliations of several celebrities suggested to me by readers. I promise I do read all topic-related comments and emails that come my way, …

64. TV Competition Show Contestants

Welcome back for another two-for-one post here at the "Celebs" blog! I've enjoyed working through my backlog of topic suggestions since this project resumed in August, and I hope you have as well. Today's post brings together two reader-suggested celebs who came to fame, at least in part, through appearing on notable TV competitions. They …

63. An Acting Smorgasbord, Part II

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, here's something else to be grateful for--a new multi-entry post here at the Celebs blog! Last time out, we looked into the religious affiliations of reader-suggested actors Hattie McDaniel and Tom Selleck; today, we pick right up with a trio of stars with potential ties to the Churches of …

62. An Acting Smorgasbord, Part I

As I continue to work through the enormous backlog of topic suggestions that built up during my year away from the blog, I have decided to make the multi-entry format the normal approach over the next few months; we've already had a two-for-one special on marriages and sports, and this will be the first of …

61. Gridirons and Putting Greens

It's that time again! Welcome back for our second post here at the recently relaunched (again...) "Church of Christ Celebrities" blog. Last month's entry looked into a couple of stories related to celeb marriages and the Churches of Christ; this month's post takes a more traditional topic--sports--as its focus and ultimately finds more conclusive and …

60. Love is In the Air!

Welcome back! While this past year was not the only break I've taken from blogging, it may have been the longest, or at least it was close to it. Either way, it has been over a year since my last post, so it seems like time to get back into action here at the "Church …

59. Cedric the Entertainer (1964-)

Welcome back once more to the "Church of Christ Celebrities" blog! As I mentioned at the very end of my previous post, I will be taking a break from blogging again after this entry (for more context, head on over to my personal/general interest blog), but we've got one more subject to investigate today--the religious …

58. Running, Jumping, and Throwing

Welcome back for another multi-part entry here at the blog! I've been putting in overtime lately, it seems, with recent entries on country musicians and rock stars, but today we leave the stage for tracks and fields. More directly, today's entry highlights three reader-suggested athletes with possible connections to Churches of Christ: track stars Bobby …
