C3 Conference Part 2

Long, but good day at the C3 Conference.  Here are a few more highlights from the afternoon/evening:

  • Ed Young, Jr. talked two sessions this morning on betrayal and what he has walked through in regards to being betrayed as a leader.  One story in particular that almost “broke the back of Fellowship Church” some 11 years ago.  Shocking!
  • Catered Senior Pastor’s lunch and further conversations on leadership struggles with Ed & Lisa Young.
  • Afternoon session with Mac Richard and Perry Noble.  Excellent talks.  Perry is one of the funniest dudes I’ve listened to with a powerful and serious point sure to follow.
  • Finished up with Brian Houston of Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia.  Excellent talks (gave one in afternoon and one in evening session).
  • Worship was great…

O.K…now for my “non-spiritual” highlights:

  • 20 – minute chair massage from Rita a Professional Massage Therapist!  They had this last year at the conference too.  A relaxation roomwith all sorts of stuff (bean bags…called FATBOYS…very appropriate) including – professional massage therapists to help pastors relax!!!!  Unbelievable.  Suffering for the Kingdom….
  • The men’s bathrooms at Fellowship Church are some of the nicest smelling bathrooms I’ve ever been in (isn’t that crazy?!)
  • They had river rocks as decor in the men’s bathroom sinks with all sorts of fancy soaps, etc.
  • Went to the Bass Pro Shop…felt a surge of testosterone
  • Ate a 2/3 lb. three cheese burger at Fuddruckers (be careful how you say that :-) )for dinner (love the cheeseburgers)
  • Did I mention GPS?  Awesome!

Tired…conference fatigue setting in.  Here are a few pictures.  I’m going to bed:

  1. Love the Bass Pro Shops!! What’s up with the elephant? I’m thinking we need a relaxation room, but with a Lars instead of a Rita.

  2. Brian Houston is awesome.

  3. Ha! I loved the rocks in the bathroom too. And yes, those bathrooms smelled great, didn’t they?
