10 Reasons I Am Sad To Be In California This Week // C-A-T-A-L-Y-S-T-0-8
1. Because I knew about this book when it was just a conversation and to begin to see it come to culmination is amazing. I even made Anne this video for her announcement while I was still at Sandals…
2. Because when Andy Stanley gives his talk and everyone is begging for more I know I can get the talk behind the talk the next day.
3. Because Aaron Keyes is going to teach every single hipster church leader in there what a real worship leader leads like.
4. Because after getting to know Brad this year, Catalyst means a whole lot more to me than it did last year. I always love knowing the brains behind the brawn.
5. Because I was secretly going to do something really fun there and now I have to wait to do it somewhere else.
6. Because I want to be in the room when they announce their BIG ANNOUNCEMENT.
7. Because last year Scott Hodge and I were sneaking around backstage and ran into someone who actually made Scott speechless. It should happen again.
8. Deadly Viper guys are going to talk about Love Takes Balls. And I am trying to use mine.
9. Because when I was at Catalyst last year twittering there were like 15 other people there twittering. This year it is going to be about 90% I’m sure.
10. I won’t get to see YOU!!!!!
This is going to be a life challenging week for some of you. I am pumped you get to be in the ATL seeking growth in your lives.
Who’s going to be there?!!!!
Catalyst is a friend of mine.I have a friend in Catalyst.
Los
RAIN IT DOWN
Los, Sorry you wont be there. I was really looking forward to meeting you in person. Hope all is well in Cali.
I was there last year, but the boss won’t let me go – for good reason, I’m taking off 2 months (nov-dec). I feel a little better about not being there though, since I know you (Los) won’t be there either.
if you want to hang out and feel bad together, I’m here for you in Cali…
i can’t wait for Catalyst! and Aaron Keyes makes me even more excited…his transparency, humility, and unusual ability to lead people straight into the presence of Jesus is incredible. Catalyst is my mad church disease anti-drug
me! me! me! i am going.
I will be there and can’t wait!!!
you know you can follow us backstage at catalystbackstage.com
thank you for everything bro. and for the fun video last year. that sucker still cracks me up.
much love.
bro.
did i really just say that?
Yeah man, we’ll miss not seeing you there. I was hoping you could make it to the Bloggers Meetup. It just won’t be complete without you.
This has nothing to do with the post. But is/was that a girls ring you had on? I swear I saw that exact same or a similar ring like that at styles for less. ; )
I went to Catalyst year not knowing what to expect. This year I know to exactly what to expect: A SPECIAL ENCOUNTER WITH GOD, GREAT TEACHINGS, AND AN AWESOME WORSHIP EXPERIENCE! I actually was one of the hundred or so people that spotted you from the LA Ink show and asked to see your ink. Still one of the greatest tattoos I have ever seen.
Dude,
What are you doing out here? Are you going to make it down to LA?
I actually lucked in to a free ticket last week so I’m pretty pumped to be going.
ME!
I’m going to be there! And you won’t! I am sad! Anyway, maybe some time I will get down to Buckhead and get to meet you in person.
but, you get to hang out with me and I’m pretty cool
I’ll be there. Would have been cool to catch ya there. And I won’t be at Recreate next year, so see ya when I see ya.
Maybe you should just roll out here for Catalyst Cali in April as I have a feeling we’ll be finding a way out to that!
I will be there. This is my third year going, and I can’t wait!!!
I will be there! I am sure it will be more amazing than last year
My wife and I just rolled into a friend’s house about 2 hours ago in Gainesville, GA and we will be at Catalyst. We came last year because these friends, who we didn’t even know, invited us. We were one of the few twitterers last year and I agree that there will be many more. I predicted about 2/3 but there may be more. I would love to connect with you over the next couple days.
