Mobile Ministry Magazine

Well, the calendar year is closing, and like other websites, MMM has a good deal to reflect on and be thankful for.

First, thanks to a ton of people. To each member of the MMM team who have each enabled and stretched me in ways that I had no idea you could do to people you never physically met. LJ, our daily conversations have meant a lot and have been a big reason for my growth. Jay and A.Jay, you both have leveled to me the kind of wisdom and insight that was both breaking and building. Lance, Jeff and Kevin; you have enabled me to see and encouraged me to walk out on the potential for MMM to be appropriate and better. Matt, welcome to the team, looking forward to more from and with you. Rodney and Agus, we may not talk as frequently, but when we do its on time. Thank you both for your hearts and faithfulness to your communities, those examples go further than anything MMM has done thus far.

EDIT: I forgot to mention Demetri; the ran off and got married, but has been so great in helping me to stay grounded here in MD as well as find ways to utilize mobile tech in church, gov and business settings.

Reflections come in a different way I guess. There has been on one side frequent posting, but the magazine has been missing all year. Had planning and admin been better on my end, the team would have produced better content for the site and magazine. I intended for at least one workshop this year, but personal and not-so-personal issues kept that from happening. Looking back, advertising on the site could have been better done, never done.

In terms of the Word and His growth. I never expected for MMM to be more than a place that would foster maturity in the Body. I never really thought that it would serve both those who know Christ and those that could care lesser about Him. I am glad for the reach, but in reflection would have liked to do more to serve the Body.

With that all said, thanks for reading MMM. MMM is more about making sure that we use tech better for God's glory than anything else. I expect our focus to expand more into laptops and tabletPCs next year, while still keeping this PDA/smartphone slant. And when the new design launches, to be able to get back into making the magazine a viable end of things here. Workshops and training would be great, but that tends to be to the team and we branch from there. Making firm that methodology would be good to grow in too. We cannot account for changes in personal lives or other websites that will come and do similar, all MMM wants to do is till the ground we have been given.

Thanks to God for making it thru 2006, in His graces, we hope to make MMM all that more faithful to Jesus' name and legacy shed in us.
