Hope

Today I am feeling hopeful.

God has promised that He will take care of us and I know that I can trust Him!

I am starting to realize how much I was getting stuck in a rut in my current job. There are so many possibilities out there to explore.

I am also starting to wonder if I have compromised too much of what I believe about what the Church should be and do, in order to be able to work within the institution. I have loved working at Chapel Hill, but there is much about the way this church operates that I don't think is either biblical or the best. However, I have pushed these thoughts aside whenever they came up over the last couple of years because some of these same ways of doing things were essential to the continuing existence of of my job position. And for that matter, pretty much any paid ministry position within the Church.

If you like church or sausage, don't ever watch either being made! God will open a door for you. How far did you get with the DNN ChMS? I would love to see what you were able to come up with.

Stephen,
I have most of the database tables created for the basic system with the notable exception of tables to subtype people and groups. Specifically I was trying to decide what fields I need in a table to hold specific info about Minors (Nursery, Children, and Youth) that would not be needed for an adult person.
I also have the DAL and BLL layers completed for all the tables I have created so far.
I have barely touched the Presentation layer, which is where the real integration with DNN will come in. This and connecting DNN users to specific people in the CHMS.

If you would like a copy of the current code drop me an email keith.e.rowley@gmail.com
