Thoughts From Men's Conference
Posted by: David Bunch
Wow! I blinked twice and the Men's Conference has come and gone. What a tremendous day and a half of being in the presence of God! I send out a huge thank you to Pastor Suey, Jereme Suey and all of the folks at Herrick for being so hospitable to us and loving and supporting us.
This morning we awoke to more snow than this LA boy has ever seen, and it continued to snow throughout the day. Here's the truth: when I looked out the window this morning and saw it snowing, my first thought was "oh no we won't be able to have conference today"! For these Yanks it wasn't even enough to mention, but I promise you we would have shut LA down for 2 days for less snow than this!
Here's a quick summary of the conference:
Friday night Mike Mitchell. From Acts where Paul and Silas were in jail. We must break out to let God break in.
Friday night T.F. Tenney. From the passage in Genesis where Joseph reveals himself to his brothers. Draw near to me he says. We must draw near to God and in doing so will draw near to our brethren. The benefits of drawing near.
Saturday morning Murrel Cornwell. When Jesus got thru giving the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5, 6, and 7, the first thing he did when he came off the mountain was minister to the most unclean person he could find (a leper). When we leave mountain top experiences and come down off the mountain we cannot overlook the hurting.
Saturday morning David Shatwell. Jesus healed nine lepers but one came back and was made whole. Our response is key in having the supernatural. The supernatural in our lives is 1 percent our response and 99% Jesus, but it must have the element of our response.
And on top of all of this, Bishop Terry McFarland is pouring awesome stuff into us at every turn.
It is 11:30 local time and I'm exhausted. But in my spirit I'm up on the mountain, drawing near to God, experiencing the supernatural, and letting God break in.
No pics probably until I get home but the cool thing is I'm working with a guy here who has some great pics in addition to the ones I've taken.
