ZOE Fresno

VJ and I drove down to Fresno Friday for the annual ZOE West Coast Worship Conference. It kicked off at 7:00 Friday evening and wrapped up a little after 6:00 this evening. We rolled into the driveway here right at 10:00.

It was a really good weekend. We got to hang out with Jeremy and Amber and her folks, Steve and Gail. Jeremy sang bass with ZOE, replacing one of the regulars who couldn't make the trip. The singing was incredible as usual; the class we attended was thought-provoking and challenging; the worship sessions were powerful. And... one of the best things about this kind of event is getting to reconnect, even if just briefly, with so many. God has a way of shaping each of us through our interactions with others, and seeing people we have known for a long time or even a short time just reminds me of that.

Wish we could have been there. We were in San Jose all day yesterday for a Celebrate Recovery seminar. But we'll see you in May at Pepperdine!

I just stumbled across your blog. I'm a bay area native, and found out about ZOE after moving to Kansas City. I got to go to their Nashville conference this year for the first time. It was challenging, and at the same time encouraging!
