Day 1 of 2

I'm spending my "2 Days with Rob Bell" this week and its half over.

Spent time talking about Identity, Innovation, Invention, Spiral Dynamics, Communication, Criticism, Care for the soul, Care for the family, and many tangents.

It's been a lot to process, and i'm sure it will take me a while to process it.

One of my goals has been to take in the information fairly objectively.  By that I mean, not to hear the information and immediately apply it to one area of mine or another's life but to let it sit for a while so I can see what rings most true.  This has been good for me.  Not thinking immediately of a ministry change, but instead thinking of what evaluative questions I need to ask of myself as a leader has set this conference up to change me for a long term of ministry and not just some short term excitements within a ministry program.

Looking forward to processing some of this in writing after it settles a little more in my head.
