A Rockin' Conference

Pin It Now!

This year's Design 4 Living Conference was awesome.
Francesca Battistelli's voice is unbelievable. Pure, effortless, unique, strong, beautiful.


Lisa Harper. I love her. What a powerful, funny, deep, hilarious, sassy communicator.
Debbie Alsdorf. Heartfelt and challenging as usual. She started the Design 4 Living Conference seven years ago!

Potter's Field Ministry. Wow. I would have been impressed if Mike the potter, whipped up an ash tray. But alas, he made some serious pottery. He and his wife shared a powerful testimony and mad artistic skills.


Justin Brier and the Design 4 Living Worship Team were awesome. And they got to come on to stage amidst confetti shooting out of cannons. For real. Cornerstone Fellowship is hardcore like that.

I had the privilege of Emceeing the whole thing. Got to intro Francesca and Potter's Field. Got to harass and make fun of Lisa Harper and her made-up words and Tennessee accent. And I got to give away a Kindle so at least one person there really, really liked me.


Got to make a complete fool of myself by dancing through the decades. Breakdancing and all. Not kidding . . . will post the video of that tomorrow. For now, here are some action shots.






God has really been speaking to me lately about his specific love for individuals and how He comes near to us. Heard that again at the conference.
Think about that:
God loves you. Specifically. Not just as a face in the crowd. But you as an individual. He cares about what is going on in your world.

This is what you said at the end of "You were made for this". God's timing, ya know? I have really been struggling with this...another confirmation. Thank you!
