Josh,

Nice blog post,  I definitely agree with your suggestion about a nap would do wonders when you’re frustrated.  In regards to the reactions, you got Sunday night when you wore a bow tie:

I think you should do a social experiment to judge the reactions between regular tie, bow tie, or dare I say no tie.  It could turn into another blog.

FYI,

Neil De Koning the Elders Guide has written a blog post about this subject (inspired by this thread):

Brenda,

Thank you for the kind works.  Your comments definately gave a boost to the Network staff and volunteers.

Randy,

Are you still having trouble making comments or creating a new forum topic?

Checking some of your recent comments it looks like a number of them posted after you wrote this post in Support and Suggestions.  Are you still having trouble? 

Let us know,

Jonathan

Randy,

I'm glad you are longer thwarted by the captcha. I look forward to more captchavating captivating posts from you.

Thanks to everone who has contributed to this forum topic.

Based on your comments we are happy to announce that a Parent to Parent Support forum has been created on the Network.  The Parent to Parent Support forum is for Christian parents of children (including adult children) who have disabilities. Check out this post on the Disability Concerns blog to learn more about the latest "place" on The Network.

Thanks JCarpenter for letting me know.  I believe they have been corrected.  One silver lining is that errors prompted your very first comment on The Network.  As a result, you are now entered in our Comment of the Day contest.  You can increase your chances of winning today or another day this week by commenting on another topic, blog post or you can tell us what you think about the look of The Network. :-)

Randy,

First, thanks for the suggestion.  

Second, can you elaborate on what you had in mind.  The Network has many different ways people connect: via the guided networks (Pastors, Elders, Deacons) and via discussion networks/forums (Faith Formation, Stewardship, Church Order). Was one of these ways what you had in mind or something else? Are there any topics you wanted to address but you felt did not fit in the Pastors forum?  Would this need to be private to ensure confidentiality?

Let us know.

So far, only 12 people have entered The Network Quiz. We didn't  make it too hard did we? We are hoping for some more entries so come on everybody (you too Randy) enter now.  Do you need a reason to enter?  I'll give you 3.

1. You'll learn about The Network
2. You be entered to win a limited edition Network mug
3. You don't have to compete against them:

Jeopardy contestants Ken Jennings, Brad Rutter, and Watson

@Katrina,

The Network Quiz winners have been announced.  If you didn't win we have 2 more contests left and it looks like you are entered in both?  Thanks for joining The Network and being a Community Builder.

Rebecca, 

I agree with Mavis that Worship is perhaps the best place to post your question.  I encourage you to do so and I hope you get some good feedback.

Thanks for your question and thank you Mavis for your suggestion.
