Flowcharting the Apostles

Every now and then, one runs across a very clever idea amongst the millions of blogs. Bob Stanley, who seems to have a programming background, has cleverly applied flowcharting software to evangelization. Bob has created a series of flowcharts that aid in teaching the many truths of our Lord's Church.

One such flowchart is Bob's flowchart showing what happened to all of the Apostles and where their remains are located today. Earlier in the year, I had visited a pizza lunch at our local Baptist Studuent Union. One of the young men was very versed in soterology, but was lacking in church history. When I was telling him about Andrew planting the Church at Byzantium and how the Church at Antioch is still present today as the Melkite Catholic Church, he was enthralled. If I had Bob's flowchart of the Apostles, my explanation might have been clearer and I would have been able to leave something with the young man to guide him in his studies.

I am a big fan of mind mapping and Bob has inspired me to create some evangelization mind maps. I'll probably recreate Bob's flowchart as a mind map and include where the Apostles evangelized and which Churchs the Apostles each planted. Did you know Thomas made his way east and into southern India? That's why we need tools like Bob's evangelization flowcharts.
