It’s been too long since I’ve posted, but I have a bit of an excuse. I’ve been feverishly working on a much-needed redesign of this site, based on an Expression Engine implementation.
In the meantime, check out Mike Boyink’s dream.
Reading it reminded me of an index card I have in my Bible. It has some Scripture verses, some of my dreams, and some quotations. I’ll leave the nature of my dreams for a later post, but reading Mike’s post reminded me that many of us who are involved in internet evangelism and the Christian web strategy blogosphere have great dreams. Maybe what I have on my index card will encourage us to trust the Lord even more than we have until today:
DREAM GREAT DREAMS
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.” John 14:12-14 (NASB)
“Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, and the very ends of the earth as Your possession.” Psalm 2:8 (NASB)
“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21 (NASB)
“If the Great Commission is true, our plans are not too big; they are too small.” - Pat Morley
“Small dreams will never enflame the hearts of men.” - Napoleon
“God delights to do IMPOSSIBLE things through IMPROBABLE people to IMPART exceeding grace to UNDESERVING recipients.” - Chip Ingram
So to Mike and the rest of us, I say, “Let’s keep dreaming big dreams!”
I believe that the internet provides today's church with a historic opportunity .... to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love in ways which could only have been imagined in times past. The objective of this website is to explore the various ways in which today's technology can be used to spread the gospel around the world.
