It's been awhile since our Pastoral team has had an opportunity to travel together for some leadership conferencing. We're heading down to Catalyst in Atlanta, GA on Tuesday morning. There are a few things I'm looking forward to this week:
- Fellowship - Just hanging out with the fellas I sweat and labor with for God's kingdom. I love my fellow Pastor dudes and I can't wait to get away with them. I'm sure we'll have some great conversations about how we can apply what we're hearing at Catalyst.
- Speakers - There will be some top notch folks speaking this year. I've been a Seth Godin nerd in our office since I became the Communications Director. So much so that I've probably annoyed some of my fellow team members. Also looking forward to Craig Groeschell (heard him at the Willow Leadership Summit) along with Andy Stanley and Dave Ramsey.
- Labs - We're taking advantage of the pre-conference labs scheduled for Wednesday. I'm heading to the "Culture" lab to here the likes of Author Tim Stevens and Andy crouch. I enjoy these smaller/more intimate settings with leaders. Looking forward to this.
- Fellow Bloggers - I don't know how much time I'll have to meet with my fellow bloggers whom I've never met face to face. But I might just get a chance to just say hi so if you're on Twitter, be sure to follow me and maybe we can catch a moment to just shake hands at the least. I'm looking forward to maybe hooking up with my fellow worship leading buddy from California,
Bobby Marchessault.
- Worship - I just heard today on the Catalyst podcast that Hillsong United will be coming in to lead some worship. That's right...Hillsong United! Woohoo!!! My fellow band buddies will be jealous I'm sure. Turns out I was waaaay off...Steve Fee, Kristian Stanfill and a few others rocked the house...still an AWESOME time of worship.
I'll be Twittering from the conference so if you're interested in updates, just click here and elect to follow me. You can also check back here as I'll try and blog as well.
