I personally like to take home tangible items that can be implemented in my world. Big ideas are great for vision, but I like baby steps and execution. Gimme stuff I can use and begin seeing results quickly. Coming from a business world guy…

A conference that is truly focused on helping others rather than showing off how great the organizers are and how 'together' they have it. 2. An environment that is conducive to networking and true community. 3. Worship led by the resident worship team rather than a worship "star". Some simple things…
