Wow, I entirely missed that - that's very much what we're trying to do with The Big Bible Project - encouraging people to be whole life Christians online, built out of a Lent course - look for http://bigbible.org.uk! It's an organically emerging project, particularly interested in the UK context, so we'd be keen to have feedback/ideas/input from others.

Organically emerging projects are glorious! MG
