I just got off a conference call with Spencer Burke of theOoze and some of the other facilitators for the upcoming Soularize learning party being held, of all places, in the Bahamas, October 25-27, 2007.
The closer we get to this event, the more I am excited to be participating in it. For the about same cost of the National Pastors Conference my partner, son, and I will be able to spend a week in the sunny and warm Bahamas with people like:
- N. T. Wright,
- Brennan Manning,
- Rita Nakashima Brock,
- Richard Rohr,
- Jordon Cooper,
- Mike DeVries,
- Todd Littleton,
- Tim Parsley,
- Mark Scandrette,
- Ron Martoia,
- Frank Viola,
- Becky Garrison,
- Karen Ward,
- Gareth Higgins,
- Spencer and so many new friends.
I’m not sure this link is supposed to be public yet but the new soularize site is worth checking out.
I love the idea of having a conference like this outside the boards of the United States and having a space to generatively engage participants.
Maybe I’ll see you there.
Peace, dwight
PS: Todd Littleton posted a great plug for this event
