On-line stuff

I recently ran across some pretty good online resources. I thought I would pass them on.
Simple Church http://www.dawnministries.org/globalministries/northamerica/simplechurch.htm

This website is part of the D.A.W.N movement (Disciple A Whole Nation). It does a good job at explaining this idea and giving you links to explore it further. In some ways it is the same as house church with a different name.

This is a short book written my missionary strategist, David Garrison. It is the basis of the IMB’s (the org I work with) missionary strategy around the world. It is also growing in influence in many other circles.

This is a website associated with a group that I'm starting with French leaders to discuss better ways to reach les Québécois. Take a look at the article by J-S Morin – Houston, Nous avons un problème! Join us some Monday morning.
