Two New Blips On Your Conference Radar…

November 09, 2009


It's exciting to share new opportunities for leaders across the country...make sure to check out what Neil Greathouse and his team are doing with the first ever Dirt Conference AND updates on what the Idea Camp team are pioneerng in Portland, OR!

Dirt Conference - Little Rock, AK (Nov. 10 & 11)
It's the first ever Dirt Conference - how do you create something from nothing?  A lot of times, we see some amazing things being done in the creative world with lights, stage sets and design...that we think are just out of reach...and we end up bailing on the dreams that God has given us.  But big ideas and big vision doesn't always mean big budget - and that's where the Dirt Conference comes in.  God breathed life into the dust & dirt of the earth and made man....so we've got his creative nature inside of us!  VIDEO

Idea Camp - Portland, OR (Nov. 20 & 21)
"Being Present With The City." - This particular Idea Camp will focus on the topics of seeing our cities through the eyes of God and expressing love by being present in practical ways. The umbrella of being present encompasses themes of walking with and serving our neighbors as opposed to doing ministry to them. As primarily a faith-based conference, there will be an on-going focus on the importance of respectfully listening to the communities we live in, collaborating across faith traditions to pray and serve, and embracing our communities’ issues as our own.
