Would you know her if I told you her name?


Man -- who put a burr in your saddle this week???? You posted something encouraging, I am interested in talking to someone about the commitment required and the availability of the training. If you have an issue with telling me, never mind. :roll:



Apologies.

I can talk to her and get her address should you still need it.


It would be appreciated. EMail? She can probably tell us how extensive and expensive the training was, how the materials are organized, commitment required, etc.

Okay. But I have read (and REread) what I posted for any hostility or hint of negativity and still don't see where you get it. It was as succinctly worded a question as possible.

I guess we could do a Poll ..
To me it looked like Pastor G was aware or knew of the Bible study and was aware there was some upfront time and money..

PG I did not mean that bad Im sorry It just seemed like "who took the course for you to do that" but now I can obviously see that you know all about this and was interested in it, i dont. It is my own ignorance not yours forgive me. Didnt mean to make it worse.

I actually read it that way as well, (which surprised me coming from you PG, then I saw the further discussion and realized you didn't mean it that way.

written communication can be difficult at times, it all depends on where you put the stress. "Who from your church went to get the training they require before allowing you to use the materials?" make it sound like you were questioning if they had taken the time to do this.

It really seemed out of character, so I questioned it, but I see that wasn't what was meant, you were not pointing out what they should have done, but asking what is needed for your church to do.

The series examines the Christian Worldview in comparison to that of the world with such themes as Philosophy, Ethics, Theology, Science, History etc and so on.


I like that. A parenting class we went through long ago did the same thing.. it was an eye opener and really made us think.
..I press on to take hold of that
for which Christ took hold of me.

After taking Class 2 of the 12 Class course I have decided that when I am in control ALL COGOPs will be required to do this course once a year.


Of course MOST of them will have to have a dictionary handy......

Case in Point:

Last night an individual asked a question: What is pantheism?

The leader answered by describing Polytheism.

Rather than embarrassing the leader, I slipped the questioner a note.

Now theres some smart people at my church. I can imagine what would happen in a congregation that is still in a storefront ater 50 years.
