In my own backyard

Today has been sort of funny. I have been looking to find a conference to go to this fall that has an emergent/20-something ministry feel. Soularize was an obvious choice because it's been around for a few years and has consistently been a place where great discussion happens. Funny that today I was on the phone with my friend Rhett who is a college pastor at Bel Air Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles. Rhett asked me if I ever thought about going to the Lead Now conference being held in Dallas. I didn't know much about that one so I logged on to their site. Turns out it's a conference for leaders who are trying to do ministry more effectively to people in their 20's and 30's.

Crazy that is in my backyard and is exactly what I have been working on for my Doctoral Dissertation. I almost feel dumb not knowing about the conference.

So I'm stoked that it's here. I'm stoked to hear Donald Miller. I'm looking forward to the break out seminars. Good things do happen in Dallas.
