If you look to the bottom of this page, you will see a link to the CouncilPage. You can reference Council documents easily through this page. <<DateTime(2009-10-05T12:06:46+1000)>> JohnHurst To see why I'm keen to see the wider use of a wiki in our church, read this interesting article about some recent [[http://www.igi-global.com/marketingdept/newsletter/octnewsletter/journal.html| Wollogong University research]]. One thing that I think constrains people '''NOT''' to undertake leadership roles in our church is their fear of what they don't know. As Acting Church Council Chair, I have been overwhelmed by the number of things happening in our church of which I was previously quite unaware. We are a big place - it is difficult for any one person to grasp all the nuances of things happening around the congregation. So what do we do? We "leave it to the experts", which is why the same 'usual suspects' bob up in the leadership roles around the church. I have far more faith in human nature than that - I think we can all take on leadership roles, and it is just the fear of the unknown that prevents us. This article suggest how using a wiki can get a handle on the "corporate knowledge" that lies behind a (relatively) large church organization like ours.
