I’m going back to Cali (and Cincinnati and Atlanta)

How do you laugh about faith without punching Christianity in the face?

That’s the question I’ll be asking in a lab I’m doing this year for the National Youth Workers Convention.

This is my first time at the convention and the speakers page looks like a list of my favorite people. The convention has some great speakers (Andy Stanley, Donald Miller, Francis Chan, etc.) and some awesome music, (David Crowder Band, Shane and Shane, etc.).

I’m really excited for the opportunity to laugh and have some fun in the name of faith with a bunch of youth workers.

If you’re going to be in Los Angeles, Cincinnati or Atlanta stop by the conference and say hey.

Here are the dates:
LA – September 25-28
Cincinnati – October 30 – November 2
Atlanta – November 20-23

Here’s the link to the National Youth Workers Convention. If you do decide to go, please let them know I told you to so that I’ll be able to tell if I’ve encouraged more people to attend than Francis Chan. He said he would bring in more people than me, what with his book that’s sold 200,000 copies and mine that’s currently sold 0. He said he would pack out his “big room” speaking session and that my lab would be sparsely attended. I said “You’re crazy Chan.” And he responded “Crazy like God’s love?” Touché imaginary Francis Chan I’m talking with in my head, touché.
