Today, I listened to a live webcast for Story that was hosted on Story Unfolding. It provided some great insight to what is coming in October and served as a catalyst for my eagerness and excitement for this event. The speakers were a diverse group with such speakers as Pete Wilson, Ben Arment, Anne Jackson, Shaun Groves, Lee Steffen, and Natalie Grant, which at times was just entertaining here them interact. Shaun Groves was especially real during the session and open to things that concern him and make him vulnerable. One thing that continues to plague me is what will be my comfortableness at the event, since I will be most likely one of the few laypeople attending. Regardless if I do stand out or blend into the crowd I am going and I will participate what will surely be an exceptional, educational and entertaining event. But, my real hope is to walk away being inspired and energized with new ideas for sharing the Gospel and planting a church.
