       As many of you know, we participate in various Peer to Peer Online Forums and Groups like that found at 0078    Plus, of course, we interact with many Onliners by other remote means as we carry out our objectives shown at   www.bcidot.org .

       A person's credibility is always an issue when you work with people even face-to-face and, of course, even more so when you have an Internet relationship when people sometimes do not even use their real name  - especially if you have been allowed to remotely view an Onliner's set of books, etc (see  0130 ).  For example,  It is very appropriate for an Onliner to show that they are a good steward of the Lord by not only obtaining personal bio (like ours at Jim Bramer, Retired CPA-Auditor  and view their actual photo, etc)  but to also provide them with such data as the following:

    >>  Please supply client, or helper, references; 
    >>  Information about your home church.  Information about mine is found at:  www.riverpark.org  My Pastor's Email address is:   George@riverpark.org  The Church's phone number is:   1 559 435-0190

         We recommend that you at least exchange some email with Ministry Onliners that we have helped as you use the possible "Information Seeking" sample below to ascertain applicability, degree and scope.  As you determine if we can remotely assist you, please also consider:

    >>  Learn what these peers have to offer to you;  
    >>  Conclude if working through a Peer to Peer forum, like those included in  0078  above, would assist you

        Let me know which of these Ministry Onliners are most likely to relate to your situation and you would like more details so you can contact them.   Or go to  0202  within a recent JIMs JRNL  for a list of those I have helped recently, etc.

      Our prayer is that you 'get scratched where you itch'  !!!!
