The IMAGINE Network: Unlike hurricane Alex, Imagine Network is On Target
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/06/unlike-hurrican-alex-imagine-network-is.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. Unlike hurricane Alex, Imagine Network is On Target. We're watching this thing wobble and clumsily drift closer to the Valley than they said it would yesterday. These things are so unpredictable, best thing is to just BE Ready! But how do you prepare for the unexpected? Like hurricanes, global mission is unpredictable. Churches increasingly want to engage but find the cross-cultural currents challenging to navigate and discouraging to even begin. Posted by the Chans. Mattaw Chil...

The IMAGINE Network: The Purpose of Imagine
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/06/purpose-of-imagine.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. The Purpose of Imagine. I recently posted a question on Facebook that generated many responses, "What is the purpose of your life? This is a serious question which can produce long answers, or simply honest 'I don't know's'. It's a challenging question which compels me to ask it again of myself, and of Imagine. While my life's response may focus more on the journey, the question posed to the ministry leads me to focus on desired outcomes. What do I hope to see accomplished? Part-t...

The IMAGINE Network: Back in School!
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/07/back-in-school-of-faith-trust.html
Friday, July 16, 2010. I thought I had graduated. Going back to school is not something I had been considering, but God in His always-proven-to-be-better wisdom, has had other plans. The school I am going back to is not one that awards degrees. In fact, it may not even be one that we're intended to. Nowhere in Scripture does it say to ". We all know God made each of us unique, like snowflakes. We all know we each have different learning styles. Then why do we tell EVERY Christian the path to disc...So re...

The IMAGINE Network: Becoming One
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/06/becoming-one.html
Friday, June 25, 2010. I recently married another young couple and it was once again a privilege, a joy, and a timely reminder. I have not performed dozens of weddings, but just enough to remember how significant each one has been and that so far, 100% of them remain married! I vary the wedding ceremony depending on the couple's wishes and on their personalities - what I know of them, to waht degrees, and what I believe the Lord is wanting to be said on their special day.

The IMAGINE Network: Imagine... An Update
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/10/imagine-update.html
Tuesday, October 19, 2010. Imagine. An Update. Several are wondering where Imagine Network has been . we've been silent and off-line for some time, but so much is going on! Let me give you some updates:. On the down side. We're STILL in process of applying for our 501(c)3 tax-exempt status. We submitted it June 18, and have diligently filed follow-up responses to questions asked of us. I've learned a lot about non-profits, and we're not even one yet! So leaving that in the Lord's hands. We've had little ...

The IMAGINE Network: Smudges and fingerprints
http://imaginethejourney.blogspot.com/2010/07/smudges-and-fingerprints.html
Saturday, July 24, 2010. I wake up grateful. Excited to be in Germany with our friends from Detmold-Nord Free Evangelical Church; anticipating a great week of baseball camp with a great team from Texas; blessed to live in fellowship with God and His global purposes. This morning I noticed smudges on my laptop, probably remnants of Andrew's clicking-while-licking, most likely checking baseball scores a few nights ago with a snack at his right hand (as usual! In the meantime, may the smudges of the Chan fa...
