On the list of followers I see Andrew Preus appearing. If I have the family tree right, he is Andrew, son of Rolf, son of Robert the Ft. Wayne President (who was brother of the LCMS president), son of Governor JAO Preus of Minnesota.
Andrew is a follower of the Lutheran Hymn Revival blog, featuring images of Paul Gerhardt. Apparently, his brother Mark is the author of that blog. (Preuses multiply faster than copies of Craig Groeschel sermons.)
Those who love great hymns have something in common with Andrew. I keep links of hymn videos on the left of Ichabod.

Although I'm not positive, I think that the Lutheran Hymn Revival blog is run by Mark Preus, Andrew's brother.
Iciric is right. If you click on the Andrew Preus icon in your followers, it just says Andrew joined Lutheran Hymn Revival, meaning he's following that blog just like he follows yours. Evidently Andrew doesn't have a Google blog because if he did, it would give the link after you clicked his icon.
The arrogance of man's flesh
Reject's God's will foretold.
Ignores its sinful anguish
Its heart is hard and cold.
God sent His Holy Spirit
Convict the World of sin
And righteousness; Christ earned it
Our peace with God to win.
God offers man forgiveness.
Man scoffs at Him instead.
Laughs at His loving kindness
Denies the blood once shed.
Christ,knowing all this, suffered
And freed us from our sin.
Our filthy flesh He covers
With His goodness! Amen!
Mark isn't the only one who writes hymns. He does write the most, and they are very comforting. I love going on his blog and reading the comforting words of the gospel.
