Richmond, Virginia, area prayer supporters -- would you like to join me in a celebration meeting to give thanks to the Lord for how He has redirected the work on this mission and for how it is being discovered by more and more users around the globe?
Let me know, ok? Randall@churchesthatcare.tv.
PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM JOHN on January 14, 2012:
This web site has grown like topsy -- a bit at a time, with a focus on content rather than making it pretty. I fully agree with many -- it does not look very professional or well designed. The reasons are well known to the closest prayer supporters and those who have taken the time to find out. Some steps to seek the wisdom of the Lord as He speaks through you and you back to the cTc.tv mission are starting to come into focus. If you wish to follow what is developing, come back to this site and check the page that will have this and following updates on it. I will not burden you or me with sending e-mails except for one that will go out shortly to churches on the prototype of the Richmond cTc.tv map and to the local prayer supporters. If you wish to get that e-mail, let me know, OK? See the Contact Us page.
EARLIER MESSAGE on December 17, 2011: A wise person just summed it up well several days ago during a coffee chat about this tiny mission: "Web sites are for sharing information, and social sites are for sharing communications." The matrix of social sites and options seems to be cross-linking and growing at an exponential rate. This mission is not funded to hire experts to leverage its reach, so it is stumbling along this learning path with very little spare time as I try to get up to speed. The hit rate, re-visits, and unique visitors count suggests that guests and users of this web site could quickly spread awareness of this fact: "Go to cTc.tv" for immediate links to the best of the free non-denominational Christian resources that we have found.
The original vision of providing a church location service has been superceeded by the unexpected global reach of this little mission (some remnants of the original work are still on this web site to serve those who still use the effective church locating feature, yet also to reflect a deeper appreciation of Philippians 1:12-18)).
Your helping to develop widespread awareness of cTc.tv would be better than any freewill financial sponsorship as we seek to do the Lord's work without the Federal choke hold placed on the mouth of non-profits. Prayers and suggestions are most welcome.
