Drive Conference Day 2

I think I said WOW yesterday about Day 1. So I really don’t know what to say today, this was WOW better than yesterday….so its that 2 Wow or WOW squared. I don’t know, you tell me. I”ll spare you the details for the moment (I’ll write a separate blog on each major point).

Here is the big thing that happened (yes I know the picture gives it away). We met Andy Stanley. The main session was over and everyone rushed out to get to the next destination because they promised prizes for those who reached early. Tired of watching the mad rush I look on stage and there is Andy talking with a guy and I figure Jumaine and I can go down there and meet him. We get to the stage and are told we cant get on stage…no big deal, we’ll wait. Everyone around us leaves including Jumaine for a minute and Andy is now standing on stage by him self just kinds looking around. Our eyes meet and he starts walking toward me…as this point I was thinking hard about something really clever to say or some amazing question to ask. By the time he got to me all I could say is THANKS…we are church planters and you have helped us tremendously with your resources. You also really convicted me with your message today and yesterday. It was the most authentic thing I could say and I’m so glad GOD allowed me to say it because Andy received it so graciously. It was awesome to watch the humility of Andy.
