I am heading to Seattle this weekend to hang with some of my favorite people.
- Dave Grisanti – Calvary Chapel, Silverdale – hired (read rescued) me some 20 years ago when I was ready to give
up on ministry. I was on his staff for 3 years (ok, almost that long) and spent tons of time laughing, dreaming and being healed. He will be interviewing me in their Sunday morning service.
- Keith Webb – CRM Coaching Guru – he is helping with CA’s Church planting progression. He is a great strategic thinker.
- Jon Sharpe – He was one of the guys that consistently encouraged me in my doctoral program.
- Mark and Josephine Anderson – joined New Community in the early days when we had no people, no money and no reputation. They believed in our community before we did. When they decided to stay was one of the big turning points in the church's history.
- Zac Fairbanks – that’s right! My oldest son who is a student at Cornish, studying Jazz Performance. He has a recital on Monday. I am so excited to see him. He is so amazing and talented! I love him more than words can express!
I am seeing lots of other folks that are very important to me as well. What a great trip!
