Good article

[Elizabeth Ring]

I think this article speaks some wisdom to how we seek each others' stories and tell our own.  I really like the kinds of questions used.

I would be interested in hearing anyone's experience in using Martha Grace Reese's Unbinding the Gospel program for getting a congregation ready to share their faith.  (If you're unfamiliar with it, you can read more at http://www.gracenet.org.)

My bad. It's http://www.gracenet.info

Looking at the Best Practices download, I really like the way this woman thinks.  The Disciples have wonderful formation models and really understand the lifelong part.  I suspect that if it is a good match for a congregation it would be a wonderful experience.

Just opened a daily mailing that I get and here was this quote:

Achievement happens when you pursue and attain what you want. Success comes when you are in clear pursuit of Why you want it.

I think it speaks volumes to our evangelism efforts
