welcome


Hello there. Welcome to CBAMinisters network. This is an attempt to provide a more targetted space for baptist ministers, youth & children's workers, particularly in the CBA, to share ideas, usable images, music, sketches, monologues, illustrations etc. AND even chat to each other!!

Thanks to all those who have contributed so far. I encourage you all to simply have a bash. I have just returned from a weekend away with the church to a place called Chantmarle (any been there?) which was an action packed time. I hope it was all worth the effort!! I thought I'd include a picture from my Summer hols in Norfolk, which I have found to be a really good place for chilling and walking along empty sandy beaches. Wonderful. Hope you are doing well.

Please note that images need to be yours (copyright issues). You will see that I have embedded some videos from reelworship, who provide the necessary code to do this. Other similar sites will do the same.

Please do sign up with your forum, which you will find under GROUPS. This will hopefully provide a good way of staying in touch with folk in your forum.

Please read Forum note on PowerPoints and use of images. Thanks
Colin Pye

No more "Big Stories" or is that really the case??

Being a Doctor Who fan, (I know I need prayer), having watched the last series and occasionally seen on some of the websites discussions about the different story arcs, and how they would develop.. got me theologically reflecting to coin an RPC phrase...The big moan a little while back was that we were now post-modernist and therefore no big stories anymore, AND YET...with these folk are interested in discussing and talking about these, and how they fit with the BIG STORY... does this suggest a…See More

More Than Conquerors

I mentioned to one or two of you at my last BBA forum ministers breakfast that I've been using a resource called more than conquerors by Simon Guillebaud in individual discipleship, 18-30s meetings and a couple of times in services. It's an absolutley cracking resource - 13 short films (10 minutes each) which are deeply challenging, toroughly anchored in scripture and very well presented. They are charismatic, evangelical & realistic in theology and are well filmed in African locations.… Continue

Easter Meditation

One of the things that I struggled with as a minister of a local church, was keeping the distinctiveness of the different seasons of the church year. It felt that although we called it ‘Advent’, often it was simply Christmas come early. And the same was true of Holy Week. It was hard to resist the pull of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen from the outset of the week. However, I persevered, and while, at the Good Friday Walk of Witness, I could understand the need to express… Continue

Rhythm of Jesus

I included the following in my blog the other day but thought it was worth sharing with CBA Ministers as well. It happened in the context of our prayers as National Settlement Team and Regional Minister Team Leaders' Meeting:



Over the three days we pray together and on Wednesday one of my colleagues, Phil, led us in a characteristically creative and inspired reflection. We thought about John 11 and the death and resurrection of Lazarus,… Continue

Retreat, vulnerable relationship and passion

This morning we held one of our theological reflection groups for newly accredited ministers. I look forward to these occasions as they are a good group of reflective practioners and invariably I come away enriched.



Sometimes I will provide some input, or we will invite someone in to speak on an issue, but also the ministers themselves are invited to contribute a paper on an aspect that they are exploring or raise an issue for discussion. Today we thought about the 'advantages and… Continue

Wonder and Wondering

Just to let you know that I've recently begun my own blog, Wonder and Wondering, and you can find it here. I've been thinking about doing one for a long time, but CBA Ministers gave me the opportunity to dip my toes, and now I've begun. Take a visit and leave a comment.
