The Wesleyan Gathering

The Wesleyan Gathering 2011

I’m on my way to Jacksonville, Florida for The Gathering.  This event is every 4 years for Wesleyan pastor’s and spouses.  We will be live streaming the Emurgency pre-conference Tuesday at 9 am.  Here’s the tweet:

LIVE feed page for #EMURGENCY Pre-Conf is up – http://bit.ly/EMURGENCY – check it out & add to your favorites! LIVE video starts Jan 4, 9am!  We are hoping to do a LIVE Techology Show sometime this week and get some great interviews.  I’m most excited to see and hear Mark Batterson whose book, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, was the inspiration for this site.  On top of all this, it’s 5 days in Florida with my wonderful wife.  This will be the longest we have been away from our kids together…ever.

Toms Shoes and Charity Water Team Up

Two of my favorite organizations are Toms Shoes and Charity Water. Both of these companies are changing the world and were founded by guys whose lives were dramatically impacted by God. In both cases, they saw a need and God gave them the vision to meet that need. Scott Harrison and Blake Mycoskie discovered their purpose, God gave them a passion for something, and their actions opened up a whole world of possibilities that have changed the world.  Now they’re teaming up to make a difference. For every pair of the special editions shoes they sell TOMS Shoeswill donate $5 to Charity Water.  We will be giving away a pair of TOMS Shoes this month to one of our newsletter subscribers.  Sign up for your chance to win a great prize and help two great causes.  Also, follow them on twitter at @TOMSshoes and @charitywater.
