I love that we can participate in unraveling the mysteries of God together, working as a body to advance the Kingdom of God. I try to employ the saying “Don;t judge a book by its cover” and I believe we are opening some very interesting liturgical books of our ancient past.

I just want to say thank you for everything your doing Essentials Red is going really well. Your challenging us to dig deep and search for the whys of what we do.

Keep up the good work!

Let us be living and loving Myst?rions for Christ!

I just have to say- when I see your constant energy and clarity to keep the train on the “tracks” in regard to the Institute, it simply amazes me. God has given you a broad and beautiful vision at ICEWS and SSU. What you are doing isn’t just delivering a few needed supplies to settlers up in a winter camp deep the frontier. At least that is not all you are doing. You are building a rail road, not delivering just a single payload. As you hear God’s voice in building it, you are indeed delivering needed supplies to each one of us (and certainly that is helping us in pursuing and living God’s reality on this earthly ball). But more than that temporary supply load, the “tracks” you are building for this “train” (pun intended) will be around for hundreds of years to come. In fact, as we know from the people who built the original railways in the US, that if those pathways are built well, they will be used for many generations to come.

ICEWS and the programs may adapt year to year (we have to constantly upgrade rail tracks that need replacement), but the foundations and pathways through the major segments of wilderness (theology, history, leadership and community) are what help all of us build for ourselves and for our children, all the while learning from the ancients who have gone before us.

The e*blue course has been great, and I am sure e*red will be glowing like fire! Continue to bring in the challenges and benefits of university level learning in portions ready for whoever is ready to eat. For the hungry life long vocationalists, the big meal of the masters degree. For the part time worship leaders with years of practical experience, intensive courses and online modules.

I speak for the broader community of worship leaders, influencers and learners- keep forging the way and challenging us Dan!

You are doing a great job!

Kim

Thanks for the love, and the boost.
