Helped CCMI continue website presence after previous webservant had to retire due to family health issues. Set up new website with Weebly so other staff could make edits and updates easily. Launched NECMF website necmf.org to reach out to men in New England who might welcome area bible studies and fellowship with other men. Am currently retooling this website to newmeninchrist.net so it can reach a broader group of men who are looking for Christian training and apprenticeship in evangelism following the approach taught in Dr. James Kennedy's Evangelism Explosion. It is a classic in the field and returns to the evangelism-discipleship model taught by Jesus which was practiced in the first three centuries of the Church. Constantine's efforts to make Christianity a state religion, thinking the persecution of Christians should be stopped, opened the gates to millions of barbarians whom were pronounced Christian but had no idea of what that meant to follow Jesus, evangelize others, or disciple new converts. The Church then changed from an 99% laity outreach to a place where these tasks were performed by priests and pastors, and not unqualified church members. Much of the churches continuance with this professional approach to ministry is based on an incorrect rendering of the passage in Ephesians 4 where it talks about Christ's giving the Church gifted men who perform ministry - apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers Eph. 4:11. These men were given to equip the laity as they had done during the first three centuries, not replace the work the laity should be doing. It was after Constantine that the Church stopped following Christ's pattern, descended into the Dark Ages and did not return till the Reformation. New Men in Christ is a fellowship, a network, intended to help restore the original approach Jesus taught us to follow. Jesus said "go and make disciples, not converts".
