I have seen a few posts regarding the name of FCM, or at least I have read posts about the magazine and the range of tpics, ministries etc that are covered. I am relatively new to FCM. Years ago (20+) I attended a FCM in Ohio out in Reynolsburg area and through a friendship with Duane and Mary Laflin have begun to get more involved in magic and the FCM. Anyway, I know discussion has occured about the name Fellowship of Christian Magicians. I guess some have suggested a name change. I am sure the magicians can make a great case for keeping it as it is. Since we cover such a wide range of ministriies and art forms, has anyone brought up the name "Fellowship of Creative Ministries" as it would seem to make sense and be more inclusive of the ministries we activly incorporate within the fellowship. Oh and the letters don't change...a bonus...I have nothing against the name as it is...magic is my primary interest, but if the association wants to be more inclusive or have a wider net to cast beyond the creative ministry of magic, a name like the one above could accomplish that. You could even keep the Fellowship of Christian Magicians active as a sub group under the bigger umbrella. What has been the discussion on this in the past? What are your thoughts about the 'name?' Just interested...

Gary, this comes up every so other and people are one side or the other. You will make enemies no matter what side you are on. I don't take sides anymore, it just makes people angry. I know is seems like a minor argument, but some people take this extremely seriously. I don't know an easy solution to this.

Yeah I kind of gathered that. Regardless, I am looking forward to a great time at the FCM convention this year. It is my first convention so I think I will learn a lot about the FCM...will yoube attending?

Finances and vacation time prevent me from going. I have been in the past and enjoyed it.
