weekend recap

this past saturday, i went to leadership advance, an all-day conference for mosaic staff. i won't go into too much detail, but it was such a great day. this church never ceases to challenge and amaze me, and saturday was no exception. never before have i been a part of a church with such vision for this city and for the world, and with so many talented and resourceful people actively and passionately pursuing this vision. God has blessed this church mightily...it's so exciting to think of what He will accomplish through mosaic!

highlights of the weekend:

- leadership advance - all of it, but especially pastor mcmanus' message at willow creek church (we saw a videotape of it) - i wish that all of you guys who weren't there could hear it!

- sunday lunch at ihop with my study group...getting to know these girls while studying over the past quarter has been so great - the misery wasn't so miserable with such good company...

- hanging out with ernest this weekend and having some good talks - saturday inspired me to start up the "conversation" again...

- hanging out with cal on a lazy sunday afternoon and stumbling upon so many great finds.
