Okay, so Saturday I got to the airport in Bangor, Maine to catch a flight connecting me to my next event, a Pastoral interview on Sunday morning at West Side Christian Church   worship services in Springfield, Illinois. The idea was that I was going to catch a flight to Detroit, connect through Detroit and catch another flight to Saint Louis, and then a sweet couple in the Church were going to pick me up in Saint Louis, and drive the one-and-a-half hours to the hotel in Springfield.

Spring Hill Camp is normally  children’s camp with about 10,000 kids in the summer, but twice a year, on two weekends a year, they open it up for women’s retreat. Honestly I was expecting a little retreat center, maybe a few rustic cabins Instead, it is this massive kids camp with adventure courses, zip wires, kickball arenas, horseback riding and just about everything you can imagine that would make a kids camp a delight - and of course that made it pretty delightful for the women as well. But, one of the things that I found so special was that so many of the women this weekend really were so open to hear what I was trying to convey.

In fact, the morning after the first session, where I covered the subject of respect and how secretly ... Read More »
