THE DAY OF DREAM CASTING
Years ago I remember being in our family van heading to Florida for our annual family vacation. As usual it took me a while to unwind. So I started a “dream session” conversation involving the whole family. I shared my desire to start a correspondence school integrating all of my study guides and audio message sets with related books into a non-residential school.
So Michal Ann and the kids let me unwind and we did a dream session together. We brainstormed a name together, wanting it to be true to the “brand of Encounters Network." The consensus was that it had to be something "action oriented." So we chatted for a while – with a bit of excitement.
We talked about several names and decided that our co-authored book, God Encounters, should be at the core. From there we went to the races dreaming out loud. All of a sudden it popped out – God Encounters Training – where we GET trained, GET equipped and GET going!
Little did I know that it would take years before the final product would become a reality - that Michal Ann would be looking in from Heaven and that the four kids would all be adults, married, and beginning families of their own. Wow, a lot has happened between that day of dreaming together and the birth of this dream!
SOME DREAMS ARE MEANT TO LIVE ON!
I remember in an EN Board of Directors meeting years ago my genius Jewish believing friend, David Dreiling, pondered deeply on the vision I was casting for this ministry school. He liked what I was sharing but he challenged me to find a description that related to more than just being “equipped for ministry."
As we explored the heart of what I desired to see come forth, the phrase – where faith and life meet – was born. So the EN Board of Directors agreed that a correspondence school – where faith and life meet – was to become a priority for this ministry. And from its origin the goal of the school was to go beyond “equipping people for ministry” to “empowering them with effective tools for life!”
A DREAM FULFILLED!
With the guidance of the Lord, the help of many people, the prayers of many saints, and the skills of a diligent staff – we have created a tool to inspire, equip and empower you in your walk with the Lord.
So Registration is Now Open! I encourage you to visit the website at www.GETeSchool.com and enroll today!
“Lord, we consecrate this school to You to be used around the world as a mighty tool for Jesus' sake. Now let’s GET GOING! Amen and Amen!”
Praise the Lord!
