CBA Ministers

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. In this Lent season it would be great to hear any Lentern & Easter thoughts + ideas. In Little Kingshill we have just had a first bash at doing a Labyrinth, and intend to do one for Easter week. It would be really useful to hear from those who have done an Easter one before, and how you did it. (did you invite schools?)

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

Daily Manna from the Net for Wednesday, July 23, 2008 [Genesis 17:3-8]

Abram fell facedown, and God said to him, 'As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations. No longer will you be called Abram ; your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations. I will make you very fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will come from you. I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you. The whole land of Canaan, where you are now an alien, I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you; and I will be their God.' Genesis 17:3-8 NIV Listen (MP3)

It's been a long time, but...

I am determined to be regularly making an entry, along with other "disciplined" type things... Anyway, having recently come back from a church away weekend, (thanks Phil A!) and with some momentum seeming to be there within the church, it's time to see that translated into movement forward... Having seen the results of the Explorers/Pioneers/Settlers groupings, I'm intrigued as to how often in church we react by how we think we should/ought to be, and the clash between this and what we actually… 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 something… 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, and went on… 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 drawbacks for… 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.
