A few months back I attended the Velocity conference sponsored by Church Planters hosted by Shawn Lovejoy and his team. The highlight of the two-day event for me was meeting a new friend during one of the breakout sessions.
When I first meet people I love to ask them to tell me their story, and so as Bryan shared his I knew right off that I had met a smart dude who loves God and is humbly following the leading of the Lord. I knew that it was no accident that he had allowed our paths to cross. The good news is that he lives in the Atlanta area so we got the chance to hang out and eat some biscuits in Cartersville yesterday morning. We talked about what God is doing in Bartow County and at The Stone Church; and we talked about the unique ways that God is working in his life. I think we both left encouraged by our time together. I know that I jotted down several of his ideas because they made me think. Here are a couple of insights that I'm still pondering and that I know are shaping my heart: 1. God is not concerned with size and speed. 2. People are over-churched but under-discipled. Thank you @BryanKelso for taking the time to share your story and wisdom!
