Galations 1:8 (NIV) But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned!
The Blogging Church, this book sounds interesting to me. I so much enjoy reading other Christian blogs, and to make mine better-well it’s a necessary book (for me).

Here’s a link for some cool ideas to “edify” . Great ways to edify . Soon, I’ll put all the projects on the blog and you can add to it if you like.
Hey, what’s with the name of the blog, Prime Timers? Well it’s better than Old Timers. I figure we are in the prime of our lives, a time when we influence our children (and other’s children), care for our families, build our careers, save for our futures and most important live and grow in Jesus Christ. So, Prime Timers is fitting.
Remember this; our blog is only as good as we make it. Or more likely as good as we contribute to it. We can use this site to share our progress in and on our goals. How? you can post prayer requests, detail how you are sharing the Gospel, write a book or movie review and just leave a note to your classmates.
I hope to make a google group this week that we can use as a contact point. Here’s how it works: whenever someone posts a note on the site (the google group site) everyone will get an email with a short description of what was written. Also if you start a conversation and someone comments on it you will get an mail notifying you a conversation is in progress.
Why two web sites? Two reasons; the blog will be a nice place for longer articles and stories and the google group will be a great place for notes and scheduled events that benefit from discussion or more planning.
