Today marks 7 years of blogging at joshuareich.org. It has been a fun 7 years. Let me first say, “Thanks for reading my blog.” I started blogging simply to write about stuff that interested me. I don’t have a specific message or subject I blog about, just things I like. My hope was to find others who enjoyed some of those things, wanted to learn together and sharpen each other.
A lot has happened since I started blogging. In that time, I’ve moved to the other side of the country (from Pennsylvania to Arizona), planted a church, we now have 4 kids, adopted one child, started the adoption process of another, lost 130 pounds and kept it off, started a book project, became addicted to Crossfit, went gluten free and read more books and listened to more music than I ever expected.
To commemorate the journey, below you will find the top posts for the last 7 years:
