I am personally leaning towards ReFresh.
I simply think it describes everything we stand for and are trying to accomplish through this church plant.
As sinners we need to ReFresh our lives in Christ.

I'm very much in line with your thoughts, Micah. -- I also like 'The Well.' That entire passage (John 4) in scripture has always spoken boldly to me...such grace...lack of judgement...holy rubuke...all things we're going to need with this messy approach to doing church. :) [Ah]

......I would like to propose that any new name submissions be made by Saturday night, at the latest. I just want to avoid any new names being proposed on the evening of the vote, as that might cloud and / or frustrate the decision. As for me, I like having a day or two to audition these ideas in my head...and I think one or two of you are the same way. So, unless there are some concerns about setting Saturday as the deadline, let's plan on that...One thing...Journey is taken. Coincidently, one of the churches that Craig (our coach) just helped plant in Fishers is called Journey Church and they have their first worship service this Sunday at Hamilton SE Jr. High School...
