The days of controls and giving just because the powers that be say so are passing. When held to the simple test of fruits the IMB is failing. I am sure there are those who will say no no. I am just not ok with recent history in Baptist life and the future is beginning to resemble a new and improved past. Christ said I am making all things new - He was not faced with SBC and Texas Baptist folks who sing I shall not be moved and mean it. I don’t know about anyone else, but LM has run it’s course.

When we replace her name with something generic, kids no longer ask "Who is Lottie Moon and why does she need money?" :) Is there some reason why some churches don’t call it the Lottie Moon offering any more?

I am only sad because I am more comfortable in the past, like most that hang onto anything too long. The worst part of holding onto the past is it slows progress into the future. Christ says behold I make all things new, that surely does not mean every new thing is from the Lord. It does however, lend itself to alerting us not to live in our comfort of the known, instead always be prepared for the move of the Spirit into a ever changing experience where the only thing that stays the same is Our Lord and Saviour. As far as the IMB is concerned I am sure there are those who will support them until the end, it is comfortable to do that. Yes David, sadly we seem to be entering a changing time of mission sending.

He is using many more creative ways than in decades past. This is an exciting time to be part of His Kingdom. It appears that every local church is becoming the front lines of Kingdom advance. I guess I am a "both/and" kind of guy when it comes to missions. I am still very committed to the IMB, but I also value all the many ways God is reaching out to the world through churches, networks, other sending agencies, and individuals. I am so thankful God is not leaving it all up to us as Baptists either. Thanks for the reminder of the power of our LORD. Doug,

I know that Mosaic is having some record achievements in the field. Also Gene Wood's church Grace for Glendora is putting 40,000+ Bibles out in China every other month, with the Governments assistance. Acts Fellowship is having some neat success with their missionaries. So these and a variety of other stories let me know that, while yes due to our arrogance and ignorance we are sending less people into the field, it is very unlike God to be limited in reaching the world.
