Cavedwellers - A truly Christian forum

I thought that I'd do a bit of marketing today with my blog and push the forum that is Cavedwellers a bit.

Having been part of a few different forums I came to the conclusion that some were spiteful and extreme, some portrayed that which was not Christian as if it were and others were merely places which offered but one viewpoint and woe betide anyone who dared to question or contradict.

Out of this experience and a brief sojourn in an excellent place which then sadly closed came the recognition of a need for a place that was 'orthodox' and yet not dogmatic. A place where people could put their point of view safe in the knowledge that regardless of their position there would be a fair discussion and Christian attitudes exhibited. This is what 'Cavedwellers' provides. We have discussions about sport, snow, theological issues and liturgy too.

For me it is a place of learning and dialogue, of putting forward ideas in the knowledge that they would be considered and dialogued with rather than merely seeing yet another ad hominem and streams of vitriol loosed at the author.

I'd like to invite those who read this blog to come and join us. There is room (and in fact a demand) for views which challenge and stretch us and there is a need for people who will bring theological insight, experience of Fresh Expressions, mission shaped ministry and just about every other facet and experience of Christian life and ministry.

So, fancy getting engaged in something that is a sort of virtual church (but without the incarnacy it isn't 'church' as I understand it) and group of friends who will pray for each other and challenge our positions over just about everything and nothing!

Hopefully get to see some of you there?
