On October 21-22 Redding, California young leaders converge for a uniquely grass roots-driven conference: When God Dreams.“When God Dreams is a conference for leaders, pastors, church planters and visionaries who are serious about living God’s dreams with courage.”
I spent several years ministering in Redding and have watched Nathan Edwardson, pastor of The Stirring, passionately reach and grow people with creative vision and humility. He is one of the speakers for this conference which also includes Jesus Culture leader Banning Liebscher and Jason Ostrander, the National Director of Youth Ministries for the Christian and Missionary Alliance.
If you can make it to Redding, do not miss out!

[Wonder why blogging has been slow? I spent the weekend in Redding, CA with some very special people.]
I am ending my trip to Redding, CA after sitting in airports waiting for fog to lift to get back home and even experiencing an airport terminal evacuation. Travel this week was about friends. I was able to spend most of my time at the Miller’s home and enjoy them while showing support as well. Randy and Kristyn are truly an inspiration. Randy is a family man, concrete contractor and guy in the church worship team who ended up in a cutting edge band (The Myriad) touring the US and on MTV! His battle with cancer is just beginning, but being the toughest dude I know and a person of faith I see God healing him. That, and the thousands praying for him add to an amazing story of God’s grace and the best of Christianity being expressed. (more…)

The Myriad’s new video for the song "You Waste Time Like a Grandfather’s Clock" has just been finished. It was directed by Jesse Rosten and shot at The Cascade Theater in Redding, CA. The Cascade brings back some memories as does this screen shot of my bro Randy Miller on the drums. You guys are amazing…can’t wait for the new CD!

My family is hanging out with me at one of my fave coffee shops of all time, Yaks. I just ate an enormously delicious cinnamon roll and have big coffee mug in hand. I will be meeting with my good friend Erich, working on my wedding remarks for Zach and Karina, and hoping my family can get through some online lessons for their homeschooling.
After 5 months some things really do change. Yaks, for instance, is adding a fancy coffee roaster. They are not settling. I love that. Other things here in town will be the same the next visit I make. This reminds me to not settle in with life, but to keep dreaming, growing and living.
How have you NOT settled and is that being “unsettled” a good thing to you?
