Welcome!

I hope you'll find this blog a meaningful way to stay connected with the men of Bethel Christian Life Center of W. Lafayette, IN.

I don't have a clue as to how this will play out in our church -- but I'm praying this online conversation helps move us a step further in the areas of fellowship, accountability & prayer, and discipleship & leadership training.

I suspect we'll see this develop as part message board, devotional, prayer list, random musings, survey tool, and much, much more.

Can I suggest a couple of action steps?

1. Create a userprofile. I want you to participate and you'll need to register to chip in with your comments and suggestions.

2. Sign up on Feedblitz for posts to be sent nightly to your email. That will save you from regularly checking the blog. If there is a new post, Feedblitz will mail it to you the same night. Efficient, eh?

3. Pray. We're starting this up with a heart that is interested in seeing men grow deeper in their faith. How that plays out is up to God and I encourage you to join me in praying for the Holy Spirit to lead, guide and direct our efforts.

Thanks for joining me in this journey. I can't wait to see where this goes!

Your brother in Christ, Eric

Hi Anthony,

Glad you found the site. Love your comment, but can we walk before we run? Would you mind horribly if we table your question for a bit? (I promise we'll come back to it.)

I'm wondering if we solicit a few suggestions for the title of this online conversation. Bethel Mens Ministry is "okay", but I'm confident we can do better for a label. I'm counting on guys who are far more creative than I!

Post those ideas and we'll survey the best ones.

Thanks for this forum guys! I hope to stop in regularly. It'll take me a while to become Blogger literate but bear with me, okay?
Great day to all!

Hi Brian, I meant to catch up on Wed night before everyone left but missed you. Wondered what you like about the Left Behind series. They are certainly a bestselling series of books. Care to provide a personal book review of what you're reading? ~ Eric
