"What's Going On"
April 30th, 2008
Okay, I'm having "blog withdrawals", so I had to write today. You all kept me busy and interested as I read all of your thought provoking comments from the last two entries. Trust me, I wanted to respond to all of you, but time just would not permit. Thank you for engaging with me in discussion and ideas. It was really exciting!
I thought it would be a good idea if I shared with you some of what is going on right now. And BELIEVE ME, it's a lot.
On April 20th, I started doing an exciting three-part series called "Before You Do". "Before You Do: Making Great Life Decisions" is the title of my next book and I really think you all are in for a treat with this one. This book touches on some hard questions and addresses all of the "what if's" you should ask before making any big decision including marriage, divorce, buying a house, having a baby and other major life-altering decisions. Those of you who attend the church and view from the internet have been able to see the series. I hope you're enjoying it! For everyone else, keep an eye out because I'll have some clips from this series coming your way soon. [*Moderator's Note: It has come to our attention that the Sunday services featuring "Before You Do" are not available via the live streaming portal. We apologize for any confusion.]
We also have an awesome conference coming up with Back II Bible, May 16-18. If you are a Word-loving Christian, this conference is for you! I realize that catering to people who only like to hear the same speakers they've heard before is limiting the many gifted people who have in depth word but may not be as well known as others. Many of my speakers have spoken at universities and colleges. These are a team of people who I believe have been with the Lord and also shut themselves up in a room long enough to warrant and deserve your attention all day long. Of course I am humbled to be listed on program with them and I will be sharing that day as well. At the end of the day all of us cannot go to school but we can surely hear those who did, or have worked and labored in the Word for years and are ready to share something of significance to those who are ready to go to the next level.
Oh my God, it is going to be great! There will be intense, biblically-based teaching and preaching and soul-stirring worship and praise. Come on out with your bibles, pads, and pens. Don't forget that the Friday night service is open to the public and you don't have to be registered to attend that session. However, the Saturday sessions will require a very modest registration fee. For more information and to register, click here.
Okay, I am going back to work. I have to get ready for Sunday—which will be my last Sunday on the theme "Before You Do." I really want to be sure that I have passed on something special and meaningful to people who understand the power of making great decisions.
I hope to see you there!
