friday, pete and i had the amazing opportunity to meet up with the guys from the catalyst road trip. if you’re not familiar with catalyst, well, you need to be. [read more about catalyst and the catalyst road trip]. if you’ve been around here for any amount of time, you probably know that i’m a bit of a conference cynic. catalyst is much, much more than a conference, and has totally won my heart!

anyway, after some fine dining at star bagel, we took them to cross point to show them what it’s like to have church inside an old baptist church building…we talked about blogging, blogging, and well, blogging.
(by the way, holy cow has my hair gotten HUGE since moving to nashville. the humidity here is nuts! why hasn’t someone told me??! big hair rivals having something between your teeth!)
i’ll let you read more about what talked about here on their blog, but i have to say, it was such an honor connecting with these guys.
have you ever been to catalyst? are you going this year? if you are…i’d love to connect. i’ll be there doing some undercover spy work.

no one has told you because we all battle big hair in the summer in Nashville….
takes me back to the days of high school and $.97 aqua net hairspray! :)
I always thought the humidity was worse in Texas! :)
I went to Catalyst for the first time last year with my staff and loved it! We will be heading back – maybe not this year but next.
i have not yet been to catalyst…i am excited about maybe getting to attend this year.
As i recall i wrote on your facebook wall to warn of you of the side effects of the south. :) it is a whole new world.
Now wait a second, I’m pretty sure I just read somewhere that big hair is making a come back!
My hubby will be a Catalyst (again) this year … absolutely l-o-v-e-s it!
I’ll be there! I’m so looking forward to it.
I will be at Catalyst again this year. Last year was my first time and I’m looking forward to going back. There is a great line-up of speakers this year!!!
I LOVE the Catalyst Road Trip! Wow, so cool that you guys connected, I hope LV has some hot blogging tips!
I understand what you mean about being skeptical about conferences. A lot of them are just hype and lights but Catalyst is so much more than that! It is an exciting experience that every church and ministry leader needs to check out.
I bet you guys had a great time with the road trip crew.
My wife calls it state fair hair!
yes, i am going to catalyst this year and looking forward to it! i went last year and it was amazing…i am still learning things from it…thanks and maybe we’ll connect there!
Looking forward to experiencing Catalyst through your blog! Went two years ago and still draw regularly from things I learned then!
Anne, I will be at Catalyst. We will have a booth set up related to our work with HIV/AIDS. I’d love to get together.
