Back from CGDC and fired up – Gift

Gift Member Posts: 85 From: Palatine, IL, USA Registered: 02-11-2001	Woo hoo, I'm back from CGDC and fired up. I was really helped by Chris Crawford's sugestion about concentrating on the processes of Christianity as oposed to makeing just a Christianized secular game. He also had great sugestions about makeing interactive Bible study programs to really augment the teaching of the Word. So, keep him in your prayers, he is not a Christian. I was also very excited to see the concept that Remnent was working on MMORPGs are hot and just going to get hotter they have developed some exciting technology some of which might need to be cept under raps so that its not stol by the secular. There was some great discussions on the business side of things that I haven't concidered yet. I feel that alot of the discussion was like a womb where GOD was growing a body. Tim you did a great job in bringing everything together. Thanks Love in Christ Gift

FYI, we have started a yahoo group. After I get conference attendees signed up, I'll work on interested folks. If you are interested, please Email me at tim@graceworksinteractive.com with a subject of "invite me to the yahoo group". If you are already on the conference "interested" list, I'll be inviting you hopefully this coming weekend. The conference was a success at getting us together and starting the community. And it couldn't have been too bad as folks want to come back again next year! -Tim ------------------ Called by God. The passioned plea of a father. The journey awaits at Jarod Journey's.
