It's hard to type with only 9 working fingers at the moment, but this (called The Crick) is from Jeff and Christine Gill if you haven't read D-train recently.

Another blog 9/07

Have I ever posted Children's Ministry Online? I didn't read much past the first post. (He's techno-savy) He may have some blogs on his list that you haven't seen.

And there's this one if you didn't see it at Kidology.

CM "Come and See!"

I read more Children Matter, through chapter 4, today. We have a wonderful doctor but you wait a LONG time.

The authors look at Jesus and the disciples, asking how did Jesus' disciples become Christian? How do children become Christian?

If we take the "Come and see" approach that Jesus took or even focus on very simple interactions that welcome and bless, how would it change how we share faith with our students and our children? Would it change our priorities? How?

On what would you base a "Come and see" approach to knowing God and meeting Jesus? What would you need?

Correction

I had to correct the link for "Stillness". I originally gave you the home address and he added posts, which is good, but the link was wrong. It should be right, now.

Another blog

I have to post this one.

From Upstream Communities in Austrailia. A very nice (counter-cultural) mission statement.

Even if we grew up in the church, if we're honest, we still see through a glass darkly. Even after 50 + years I forget what a different paradigm Jesus comes from, yet He came down to live here and shake up our world with His radical ideas.

...oh...and He did really radical things, too!
