It's good to be home...for a couple days.

Well Jeff and I finally made it back to NY Wednesday night around midnight. We were able to be apart of a great Pastor's conference down in Lynchburg, VA. It was really cool for me because I got to spend some time with my brothers who live in Lynchburg. Jeff and I stayed at Jon's house. Jeff was very nice and humble when he said he would sleep on the couch in the basement and give me the guest room. Sounds really nice of him, until you realize that there was a 50" flat panel tv hanging on the wall in front of the couch!
The line up of speakers was awesome too. First night we were there we got to hear Rick Warren, author of Purpose Driven Life, speak. I always liked Rick, but after hearing him speak I gain an even greater respect for him. There was a bunch of other guys like Jim Cymbala from Brooklyn Tabernacle, Jonathon Falwell from Thomas Road and Liberty.
What I really enjoyed about this conference is that it gave me spiritual charge that many of you received while you were at camp. Camp really spoke to me and challenge me, but my goal for that week was to help all of you grow and find answers to the crazy questions of life. This conference allowed me to get away from everything and listen to what God had for me.
But now I must stop typing because I need to get in a car and drive three hours back to PA for Ashley's graduation! Don't miss Sunday. We are all going to be upstairs because I get to preach!
