this past week i had the awesome opportunity to go to the orange conference! hmmm..most of you are trying to figure out what that is. isn't it supposed to be going green these days? well, honestly, i think the orange conference is definitely about going green, but i'm going to tell you all about going orange!!
going orange is all about rethinking how you do ministry. they take red and yellow to make orange. red stands for the heartbeat of unconditional love or family, yellow stands for light or the church. and when you combine red and yellow, you get a beautiful shade of orange. just like when you combine family and church you get a beautiful result! no wonder orange is my favorite color! i'm loving this....can you tell yet?
so all week we listened to francis chan, andy stanley, reggie joiner, perry noble(who is hilarious, i might say) steve fee, phil wickham, and many others. i also had break out sessions geared towards children's ministry. i was blown away and am on information overload. i feel the need to spit it all out!
since most of you aren't ministry leaders you really won't want to hear all the ramblings i have...but over the next several days i'm going to share stuff on parenting. stuff most of you can relate to. and it's good....it's orange, it's green, it's alive, and most of all, it's easy!!!
on a side note, i had mentioned on here about reading crazy love by francis chan - get it and read it.....you won't be disappointed!
in the meantime - it is a beautiful life....
