Not of our own ability - day two summary

Day two of the conference is now done, the activities officially concluded in my mind now that I have entered all twenty books into my digital library via Delicious Monster. I don’t like to cut these posts short, but as it is midweek of the conference and I want to be rested for the [...]

The Fire-hose Exploded

Day one of the Shepherd’s Conference is concluded. On our road trip down, Chuck made a comment to the effect of “getting ready to drink from the firehose.” Right now I feel like I am floating (face up, by God’s grace) in the flooded streets after the dam has burst. The preparation [...]

Drama

Posted by admin On April - 8 - 2009ADD COMMENTS
