Before The Bruised Reed was taken off-line for a considerable period, Phillip Johnson added the site to his online collection of annotated bookmarks...with some very nice comments:

"A well-designed site . . . Home of the '1st-Class Web Sites' awards, this site deserves one of those awards."

What can I say? I'm very flattered!

ICLnet had some nice things to say about "The Bruised Reed" in their description of the site:

"A Devotional, Models for Daily Prayer, Readings and Reflections are included as devotional material, all worth the visit, and aptly matched to the purpose of The Bruised Reed. . . . Mr. Wysockie devotes a section to Sacred Music on the Web, which provides an excellent selection of links to a variety of hymnals and contemporary Christian music."

Thanks!

"The Underground Informer," an online magazine in Southern California, gave our advent calendar a wonderful review:

"If you remember Advent calendars from your childhood, as I do, don't miss the 1996 "Silent Night" Advent Calendar. The electronic version takes you to a new set of links each day, along with a seasonal reading from the Bible. The calendar itself is set against a sumptuous graphic background showing an angel visiting the Blessed Virgin Mary. This is an exceptionally lovely site you'll want to visit several times this season."


Through devotionals, The Bruised Reed seeks to provide encouragement for the Christian journey.
