CYC Scoops
I’m at Challenge Youth Conference this weekend. We’ll bring 13,000 Christian young people and their helpers together for a few great days of faith building. A few years ago the board of servant leaders asked me to emcee the event. It is fun and energizing to be a part of this event. And to all the doomsdays dudes out there (and with all the humility I can muster, it is from a larger vantage point than any of them), from where I stand the future looks awesome for God’s People!
Two sort of off page scoops:
