For years I have dreamed about the possibilities of ministry within the unnecesary boundaries of a single church or denomination.

Although I have read of many evangelists and leaders who worked among many groups, I have been limiting my own vision with a pair of sunglasses I didn’t even realize I had on.

Readers of this blog will have to bear with me if i am being repetitious, but it really is taking me a while to feel the freedom to take the “Bridge Vision” on the road so to speak to other churches in the area. I realized it is not that I dont have the courage to ask pastors and leaders to join in the vision, but rather that the paradigm of missions operating under the banner of one church group here in America is so strong.

One thing that will help is that i volunteered for my company to rebuild the Common Ground website. Mike Miller and I are becoming allies and co-builders.

Gods greater kingdom is more than just realizing there are more churches out there than your own… for me, it is the active pursuit of ways to really bring the stregths of ministries together to do “greater exploits” for our king!
