I think the title is well-chosen and conveys the purpose you spoke of.<BR/><BR/>It's funny that the idea of "integration" started to hit me recently as I began to re-read Philip Hughes', "The True Image: The Origin and Destiny of Man in Christ". The first part of the book (covering the first 5 chapters)is titled, "Creation in the Image of God: Integration". The second part, "The Image Rejected: Disintegration". And the third part is, "The Image Restored: Reintegration".<BR/><BR/>I don't know how relevant that is...I just found it to be interesting :-)<BR/><BR/>Good luck with everything pertaining to INTEGRATE: Where Faith and Work Meet.<BR/><BR/>JasonGreat Googly Moogly!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13348645248449285718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7110103.post-57310403781548502762008-10-04T21:11:00.000-04:002008-10-04T21:11:00.000-04:00We came up with a name!It's going to be called INT...We came up with a name!<BR/><BR/>It's going to be called <B>INTEGRATE: Where Faith and Work Meet</B>Bob Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08576734261775426385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7110103.post-87204980106348784402008-10-03T12:40:00.000-04:002008-10-03T12:40:00.000-04:00Thanks for the links, Bob.

Maybe you can call it something as simple as, "The Work of Shalom" or "Work as Shalom" or "The Shalomic Week", etc.<BR/><BR/>The idea of Shalom as, as Plantinga might say, "The Way Things Ought to Be", and "universal flourshing and wholeness and delight" is an idea that really must be incorporated into our "work mind-set" since work is a gift of God. Also, the Biblical idea of the redemption of all things in the "summing up of all things in Christ" has "Shalom" at its center; so tying "work" and "Shalom" together seems natural from a Biblical perspective.<BR/><BR/>The conference looks like it will be very interesting.<BR/><BR/>JasonGreat Googly Moogly!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13348645248449285718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7110103.post-69448260298109780582008-09-30T15:01:00.000-04:002008-09-30T15:01:00.000-04:00You've got it right there: "Sunday into Monday". ...You've got it right there: "Sunday into Monday".
