Weekly COLLABORATIVE Ministries e-Newsletter:
Having developed a significant network of Bible-believing ministries throughout our metro area (& state), we're now starting to facilitate more interaction among them regarding significant matters of prayer, care and 'share'. And it serves somewhat as a 'journal' (& archive) of significant Christian news & events in our area.
Here's an example.

CCDA Indy 2005...
The kickoff planning meeting was today -- very exciting to get started this early, but this is a 'driven' group of Christians here in Indy who care about community development.
Scott Truex has been highly instrumental in lighting the fire and fanning the flame. Good job, Scott.
And btw, blogger Rudy Carrasco, Urban Onramps, was the guy who hooked me up with Scott... right here in our own metro area -- but introduced to me by a Californian. [That's as bad as going all the way to New Orleans recently to CCDA 2003, and all the Hoosiers ended up meeting together during one segment... and lots of us met lots of others for the very first time. Point is... we need to work on better ways for 'driven' Christians to meet, right here in the racing capital of the world.

Howard Dean's Christian Position on Homosexuality...
From the Washington Post:
"From a religious point of view, if God had thought homosexuality is a sin, he would not have created gay people."
LOL. And they used to assail Dan Quayle for saying goofy things. Go figure.
Ok, so what's next? Pete Rose weighing in theologically? "From my religious point of view, if God had thought gambling on baseball is a sin for a baseball manager, he would not have created compulsive gamblers."
When we read the good book, Howard, we find we have ALL been born with a propensity to lie, cheat, steal, fornicate and any other number of things that offend a perfect God. So shall we ALL be granted a free pass at the pearly gates?
If so, why did Jesus have to come do anything for us?
I'm sorry; I think I have to agree with Matt Grills. 'You've got the wrong Jesus, Howard."
P.S..... Matt just posted an update after receiving a lot of hate mail... interesting reading. And the cool part -- Matt's from right here in Indy.
