I traveled to the Youth Pastors Summit this week in Orlando (Jay Strack event) and had a great time representing the D6 Conference and Randall House. After the event I spent a day with some Youth Pastor friends talking about relevant challenges in local church ministry. Some of the highlights from my time in Orlando were:
- rooming with Allen Pointer and getting to catch up…great conversations
- listening to real challenges that youth pastors face in working with Sr. Pastors
- watching Steve Greenwood’s video!
- talking with student ministers about the D6 Conference, D6 Devotional Magazines, and C2 DVDs
- listening to Steve Greenwood & Alan Hines talk about Elements Children’s Church Curriculum (NEW from Randall House – Releasing September 09)
- late night double-cheeseburger at Waffle House with Tommy, Steven, and James
- listening to Francis Chan speak for the first time
- trying to figure out the “now what” after listening to Chan speak…this made for some great conversation
- talking about Crazy Love
Going to the YP Summit was a blessing…and being able to listen, share and learn from my youth pastor friends was incredible. I look forward to next year.
