You won’t want to miss the Catalyst Conference this year, happening October 6-8, 2010 in Atlanta. It’s a powerful event where 13,000 young leaders will converge for the leadership experience of the year, including high-octane speakers, powerful worship, innovative programming, and an experience unlike any other.
Hear from leadership authorities including Andy Stanley, Seth Godin, TD Jakes, Craig Groeschel, Francis Chan, Beth Moore, Perry Noble, and Christine Caine.
Plus, Catalyst Labs will feature innovative thought leaders like Michael Hyatt, Mark Batterson, John Ortberg, Mike Foster, Jud Wilhite, Jon Acuff, and others. I’m excited that I will be leading my first Catalyst lab this year as well!!
The super early bird rate ended last Thursday but they’ve graciously allowed me to offer my blog readers an incredible deal for the next 2 days. When registering online or over the phone just give them the Rate Code “FOB.” That will get you in for just $209 this year. Call 888.334.6569 to speak to a Catalyst Concierge, or register online at www.catalystconference.com. Catalyst will sell out, so make sure and register early!
Thanks for this, Pete! You may be visited by a nice young black woman today at ICRS. She has vital info about Plan B. We’ll be in touch. Catalyst looks amazing, btw.
I hope to be there, one way or another. Maybe even catch your lab.
iWish. but it’s too darn expensive.
Oy Vey!!! Another “Leadership Conference?”
Lot’s of “lifting up” of famous “Names,”
famous “Speakers,”
famous “Leaders,”
and young wannabee “Famous Leaders.”
**And NOT one “Lifting up” of Jesus.**
Please forgive us Lord.
With “13,000 Young Leaders?”
Experiencing “the leadership experience of the year?”
Listening to “Famous” well known “Leadership Authorities?”
And “several innovative thinkers and practitioners?”
“Catalyst Lab’s” (what’s that?)
featuring “innovative thought leaders?” Huh?
Maybe I’m a little cranky today,
BUT, this sounds ugly familiar,
this sounds like a bunch of “worldly, over the top, hype,” Mercy Lord…
Love not the world…
For all that is in the world, **the lust of the flesh,**
and **the lust of the eyes,**
and **the pride of life,**
is not of the Father, but is of the world.
1John 2:15-16
Didn’t Jesus, in Mat 23:10 KJV,
tell His disciples “NOT” to call themselves
“master / leaders” for you have “ONE” “master / leader” the Christ.
Didn’t Jesus say?…
I receive NOT honour from men…
…How can ye believe,
which **receive honour one of another,**
and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
John 5:41-44
He that **speaketh of himself** seeketh his own glory…
John 7:18
And I seek NOT mine own glory…
John 8:50
Jesus answered, **If I honour myself,
my honour is nothing:**
it is my Father that honoureth me;
of whom ye say, that he is your God:
John 8:54
Most people don’t start out wanting to
“steal the glory” that belongs to Jesus.
They just don’t refuse the glory, when it comes.
Seems “Catalyst” is giving glory and honor to man,
and man is accepting it. Yes?
Where is the honor, and glory, for Jesus?
Jesus “must” increase. I “must” decrease.
If it lifts up Jesus, rejoice,
it’s probably “Truth.”
If it lifts up man, beware,
it’s probably “deception.”
Jesus… Our Lord and Our God…
