Network "February Flashback"

On our 4th anniversary in 2014, we re-launched The Network and opened up all 60 ministry topics for members to post blogs, resources, discussion topics and Ministry Q&A. That was in stark contrast to the initial launch on February 8, 2010 when only  “Guides” could post blogs and resources on just eleven ministry topics!

In honor of The Network’s 6th anniversary, we’re doing a flashback series focusing on the most popular blogs from that first year. Each week in February, one “flashback” blog will be featured in the Network email. Here are some additional titles that resonated with the Network community from the eleven ministry topics (and Guides) listed below:
