community is important for all of us.  we offer these pages to help you in developing community.  we admit that a great many of these pages can be used in other area,  this is one of the biggest problem with putting things in categories - we hope the help.

CHICK THIS  [our dna]

did you ever wonder who we are at www.ginkworld.net?  did you ever wonder if we had a vision?  did you ever wonder if we had a purpose?  did you ever wonder what that slimy green stuff was in the folds of very large people?  well, exclusive of the green stuff, this is the place to find all the information you could ever want to know about www.ginkworld.net - scary, right?

CLICK THIS  [position papers]

in this section we have answered some major questions of community of faith.  now, we will admit it our opinion, and no one is required to take that opinion to heart.  we only offer this as a starting point for you or others in your community to begin their spiritual walk.  this is the achieves for all position papers

CLICK THIS  [7 questions]

being connected is a major part of developing a solid community - if you are not listening to each other how can you care about each other?  in this section we record the voices of others in the "postmodern movement" (known as PoMo).  each week we ask 7 questions of different people, and exclusive of editing for spelling, we give you their answers as they write them - no changing, just purity.  by clicking on the "7 questions" tab you will find yourself at the main page of "7 questions."

CLICK THIS  [articles]

each week we have an opening article by pastor john, of someone else.  these articles can be funny, silly, serious, confusing, or angry - they can be gems or the worst written garbage you have ever read, but on thing is for sure - they are honest and from the heart.

CLICK THIS  [hard questions]

nothing is more confusing the not having a person answer a question simply because it's hard.  well, each week pastor john, and others, will take the time to answer the hard questions.  you may not like the answer, you may think it all crap; but no matter what anyone thinks - the answers are honest, and pure.  

CLICK THIS  [punk monkey]

this is just fun - punk monkey is our "mascot" (actually it's heather's and pastor john's alter ego).  punk monkey is a place were we can vent on issues with humor, and without coming to a conclusion - punk monkey stories are designed to help you come to a conclusion, and one you pick.  to get to know more about punk monkey, and his past, check out this section and read his opening articles, we think you will like.

CLICK THIS  [the narrative]

truth is in the narrative, not in the directive.  this section is filled with stories.  we add to them as we get new one, and if you desire to participate join right in.  we would love to read what you have.

CLICK THIS  [message boards]

this is exactly what it says it is - our message board.  you can drop a message here for us, or fro a friend, or for anyone you wish.  by doing so we have the opportunity to react to the questions, and so will others.

CLICK THIS  [topic board]

CLICK THIS  [guest book]

yes, we have a guest book - if you get the time we would love for you to sign it.

CLICK THIS  [classified ads]

www.ginkworld.net started to offer classifieds when we noticed that many communities of faith had items they needed to get rid of, and many communities of faith had need for the items - so why not have a place where they could connect? - the birth of www.ginkworld.net classifieds.  at the classifieds you can post job openings, equipment needs, conferences and camp dates - and we even have a personal section, to help you meet your soul mate.
