I stole that blunt, "single word with a period" writing style from Billy when he Facebooked, "Worst. Move. Ever." one day. Some of you may know what I'm talking about.
I have to tell you, Friday and Saturday created some sort of internal, spiritual shift within me that cause what would normally be a grouchy "this is too early in the morning" Sunday to lead worship at my church in Edgewood, into a morning of calmness, internal peace, joy and an overall sense of feeling like "everything is going to be okay." I felt very "at home" at the conference, like I was revisiting an environment similar to my West Coast liberal past (although I remain a West Coast liberal at heart) yet instead of pagans and massive intoxication it was Jesus and centering prayer and spiritual wisdom I've only read in books but now experienced the power of being in the room with the authors themselves hearing their voices. It was good for me in many ways. I loved all of it.
Looking forward to March 31st and Fudruckers (watch how you spell that one!!). It's the one on Pan American by Jefferson, right?
I was also feeling this weekend that we're really becoming a little family, don'tcha think?

I am sorry I missed it! It sounds like it was wonderful. I really wanted to hear the speakers. I think I can pick some of it up online though.
We were wondering if you made it (or not). We missed you.
Beautiful. That's the word I keep coming back to to describe it.
Thanks also to Tara and Billy for the great lunch on Saturday! It was one of the highlights of the conference!
Anytime David! It was one of the highlights for me too!
