Developing Your Platform

I can’t tell you how excited I am that my friend Michael Hyatt’s new book, Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World, releases this week. I had the chance to catch up with Mike yesterday and chat with him a little about the book. As I write this post his book is skyrocketing at #4 on Amazon. Absolutely amazing. In case you don’t take time to watch the video, I highly recommend you pick up a copy. You won’t regret it.

While I haven’t been as intentional as I want to be with this, I believe the idea of strategically building a platform is important. I’ve got one life, and one message to communicate during that life, and I want to reach as many people as I possibly can with the message of Jesus.

If you blog, I want you to leave a link to your blog in the comments. We would love to check out your platform.

Your Chance to Get Lit – For Free

This March 24th, Cross Point is going to be hosting LIT 2011.  This amazing conference was founded by my good friend Chris Stephens, senior pastor of Faith Promise Church in Knoxville, TN. He’s blogged about the event HERE.

A Floating Conference

I’ll admit it. I’m a conference junkie.

I love to speak at conferences and I love to attend them.

The internet has really changed how I approach conferences these days though. Thankfully most conferences make their content available online so I get the opportunity to pick and choose the best of the best and listen to it at my convenience.

So these days when I’m picking a conference it’s all about the experience. Content is no longer king for me because I can access that online. I want to know…

-Are they creating an environment that is allowing me to think outside the box?

-Are they giving me the opportunity to network and build relationships with other pastors/leaders?

-Are they giving me the opportunity to learn from peers and not just the latest and greatest Christian celebrity?

With that in mind I’m really excited about speaking at a one of a kind conference (I use that term loosely) next Spring. April 2-7, 2011 I’ll be joining some of the greatest communicators/leaders I know, Ken Davis, Michael Hyatt & Randy Elrod in hosting this time together.

Where? Jamaica & The Grand Caymans

On? The Century ship which is with Celebrity cruise line

How much?  Entry price is $509. per person ($749. includes all taxes, tips and conference fee).

I’m really excited about this unique experience. I think it’s going to be an awesome environment to worship, brainstorm, learn, be challenged, relax, rest, and generally just have a blast. Hope you’ll consider joining us.

*All the speakers have all waived their fees and 100% of conference monies will go to charity!

My Life In Snapshots

At least once a day someone asks me, “What the heck is Twitter?” I usually find myself stumbling to explain. I’ve seen this video in a couple of different places and it explains it so well. So watch this….
