I've already talked to several leaders around the country who have been checking out the sessions online; and by all accounts, this conference was something special. According to high placed sources:-), I happen to know that a great deal of prayerful planning went into this event by all involved (especially Rick); and not just planning, but really a lot of listening on his part over the past year to pastors around the world seeking to know who they (we) are, where we're at, what we need and how best we can be helped. All of this came together in what was for me, perhaps, the very best conference I have ever attended both from a personal and professional standpoint. Thanks to the entire Saddleback team and especially, to Rick, himself, for a job well done!
I leave, then, filled with renewed vision for Mosaic; with keen new insights, freshly motivated and personally encouraged to return and strengthen the church in the days ahead. With this in mind, pastors everywhere should purchase the entire conference on DVD for review with their staff teams. Once you do, I'm sure you all will feel the same.
Mark,
Your time at Saddleback sounds good. So glad you are refreshed.
Perhaps after the staff is finished w/ it, I would be interested in seeing any of the conference DVD series, if Mosaic purchases it.
thanx,
JPU
