What an awesome dialogue! You both flatter me with your presence here.

I have to stop and thank God for everything He is doing in me, through me and for me and for even allowing me to have this forum. I also want to thank Joe for setting it up and for helping me keep it going. As a businessman I will yet find a way to make money online. My CD sales are flat right now, but my name is at the top of the google list, so it is only a matter of time before God brings some like minded individuals across my path to help me and my business, Creative Kingdom Concepts LLC, in our efforts to better the world!

My support homes are full right now and the work is exciting with prospects for further development in the city, beyond my own capacity to imagine them. The Berlin Street house I labored to improve and develop as a theraputic residence back in '02 is now serving as a home church fellowship with two weekly services and the numbers of those participating is being added to every week!

Meanwhile, on the home front, Kathy and I are making improvements to the p-view house and both of the children are now young adults pursuing their own careers and hopefully soon to start their own families!

The Bible says that when the righteous flourish, the city rejoices, and that is what we are seeing here in Montpelier. Lives are changing and people are recognizing that it is not, as Shane says and I agree, an intellectual pursuit, but rather a change that occurs when we enter into the Kingdom of God, by faith, as a child. I like what Bob says also, why wait for heaven? We can begin practicing for it right here and now! Every day brings new opportunity for us to experience what God Himself has ordained for us, as His kids; to enjoy our lives to the full!

He has set before us, life and death, the blessing and the curse, therefore choose life that you and your descendents may live! - Deut 30:19

For others who may visit this site, I say welcome and do stop by often and feel free to add your comments!

Geeeze is that some disarmament tactic you get taught in God school. Smother the opposition in complements and then slightly twist the words so that it seems like we are all on the same page.

No Nada Not going to happen.

Tim this is Heaven right now. There is no practice, there is no test , there is no entrance exam, there is no list. Everyone here right now is in. It doesn't last forever either. Its just until it ends. Its all we got and there is nothing else. Its all things too, good , bad and ugly. Take it because you can't leave it. Nobody gets out alive.

I heard a funny comedian the other day talking about space travel. He noted how Man has shrived to get up into space a place he pointed out we already were. How silly he thought it was that we would collectively try so hard to get some place we already were.
