Time to Stir the Pot

Well, I gues it is time to stir things up again. Some may not like me bringing this up again, but here it comes...

The ABA national meeting is nearing and it is time to start thinking about a name change for our association. If we are going to be seen as a serious global player in the world of missions our name needs to reflect it. Our churches and missions around the world don't understand the narrow thinking of our brethren at home. They see our associational work as international/global and wonder why we don't get the bigger picture here at home. A name change would send a positive message to everyone and establish a global vision for the ABA. A name change can be a good thing.

All it will take for us to make the change is to tack on to the end of our present name the word "International". Now, how hard is that? Who could possibly be offended by that? What devious false heresy could we interject into our fellowship by adding "international"?

Let's get a 'grassfire' going with this idea of a name change. Maybe this year it will happen.
