Great to be home! I spent an amazing week in Alabama and Oklahoma. I attended the ARC conference in Birmingham and then from there I was at Bishop Tony Millers conference in Oklahoma city. I got to hear from some of the best pastors and leaders in the body of Christ. Men like Brian Houston of Hillsong Church, Chris Hodges from Church of the Highlands, Kelly Varner and Bishop Miller. God really spoke some great things to my spirit this week. Of the things that impacted me the most was when I heard the Holy Spirit say to me "Get out of the way!" I was praying about our church and our country. I have read the church planting books, interviewed church planters and have had some of the best coaching available but NOTHING can replace the gentle leading of the Holy Spirit. He knows what our city needs better than anybody. My resolve is to pray, listen, and have the guts to obey. Even if it cuts against the grain of church planting normal! Have you ever had a plan that God interrupted? Did you obey or stick to it? What was the outcome?

Hey, I looked for you at the ARC conference... but I didn't know exactly what you looked like. So missed you this time... Hope the church is jamming... will meet you maybe at the next one.
Robert-sorry we missed each other. The church is doing amazing. God has blessed us with a wonderful group of people. I will be at the ARC conference next year! It was awesome!
