Assuming I've been keeping tally of things correctly, you're officially reading Post #200 on this Brookside Institute site!  Over the course of the last 12 months, we've had 16,600+ unique visitors to this site, and over 87,500 total page views.  Whether this is your first intro to who we are or you've been tagging along for a while, thanks for joining in!  

As the posts continue accumulating, I don't want that to keep us from looking back every now and then - to review what the Brookside Institute is all about, and for me to mention posts that are either some of my personal favorites or that have gotten lots of traction.  These sorts of "review posts" also serve as a sort of index (or Table of Contents?), organizing the material and helping orient you to who we are and what we're about at the Brookside Institute.

What I've done with this post, then, is organized some links under the following categories:
  • First Things First: Some Orientation to Who I Am, What We Do at the Brookside Institute, and What Others Are Saying
  • Why We Do What We Do: Championing the Value of Equipping
  • How We Do What We Do: The Specific Shape of the Brookside Institute
  • My Personal "Top 12" Posts (either because I had fun writing the material, because of the importance of the topic, etc.)

Underneath each category, I've included a short list of links to pages on this site where you can learn more about who we are and what we're up to.

My recommendation?  Scroll through the index that's below, and find 3-4 posts you want to check out.  This is a great way to see what we're doing and get to know the Institute a bit better!

I like this blog. And I'm actually surprised that you haven't banned me yet. But I would like to see more input from other folks.

I was really stressed by Erectile dysfunction issues and had consulted Dr Moses Buba. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in me and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Dr Moses Buba enough. Highly recommended. Email [email protected] WhatsApp +2349060529305. you can also reach on his Facebook page ; https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61559577240930 / website page https://bubaherbalmiraclem.wixsite.com/website
