January 1st is the day of the biggest event of the year on TheologyOnline.com, yes, it's the 2012 Posts of the Year awards with your host, Knight (that's me). As you know every year (since 2002) I countdown the greatest posts made on TOL every year. You may ask yourself "how are these posts picked"? Well, the picking goes something like this.... I round-up all the Post of the Day picks that I have made each year and then they are ranked by me as to my favorites.
Throughout the day on January 1st 2012 (and in this thread) I will be announcing the winners. I will also be placing every winning selection in this post so you can easily find all of this years winner.
