For many of us, MinistryNet: Antalya 2009 was where God met us. It was an exciting time to learn new things, meet new people, and write plans for how we will integrate the use of the Internet into our movement building strategies.

We want to help you succeed with your plans! To do this, we are working to make the information produced during the Knowledge Café’s available in a summarized form, and we are working to get audio, video, slide shows, and other supporting documents available on this site so you can review what you heard or get what you missed.

1. Most of the Knowledge Café information has been edited and summarized.
   1. Here are all the unedited Knowledge Café responses.  These are the notes that were recorded at each table. They will remain on the this conference website.
   2. Here are the summarized, edited Knowledge Café responses. (Requires a GCX login for access). These will remain on the conference wiki.
   3. Will you help us edit the Knowledge Café responses? If so, follow the instructions on this page.
   4. Most of the audio files and many of the videos are posted to the ‘Archived Sessions’ page, along with the other supporting documents, like slide show files and notes.
      We have experienced technical difficulties getting the video files posted, so there have been some delays. We will continue posting audio and video files until everything we have is posted.

Will you take a minute and write what the conference meant for you and what your action plan is? Russ Martin started this discussion thread in the eMinistry Community in GCX, and it has been good to see what others are doing now.

We look forward to what God will do through you as you find new ways to use the Internet to help you build spiritual movements!

Blessings,

The MinistryNet Conference Team

P.S. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to reply and ask. Or post your question to the MinistryNet section of the eMinistry Community.

The plan is to have a video link, an audio link, and a link to any related files – for each session.

We are the “A” team.

How will you lead?

Look at Abraham, a pioneer who was called to go where none of his ancestors had ever gone. We know that he came from Ur of the Chaldeans (modern day Iraq). The Chaldeans built the Tower of Babel and they worshipped gods and goddesses. This is the world Abraham grew up in. From that context, God spoke. And this is a foundation for Internet Ministry. We are trying to be a foundation, a vehicle for God to speak to others, regardless of the context people find themselves in.

Following means leaving. Abraham was called to a place where he was alone. You may not feel sponsored, valued, or encouraged.

The result was “be a blessing to the nations” but the pathway was the relationship God was calling Abraham into. It’s easy to get lost in our strategies. But God wants us to discover Him in the midst our striving.

The path to blessing is discovering that the blessing is not what we think it is. It is God Himself. God is our shield, our very great reward.

Blue jeans and comfortable shoes are appropriate.

For women
Do not wear short sleeves (or at least wear modest ones), no lower cut shirts, and no shorts. Pants and skirts below the knee are OK.

The conference room at the Maritim can be cool, so you might want to bring a sweater.
