And I am glad to hear you are finding many opportunities to choose from. I hope I get a chance to meet you in person.</p> <p>I am also glad to hear the leadership material has been a blessing.</p> <img src="http://spin.willowcreek.com/c/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3946" width="1" height="1">http://spin.willowcreek.com/c/blogs/arts_blog/archive/2008/04/18/arise-the-big-idea.aspx#3945Tue, 06 May 2008 20:42:24 GMT0f13730e-872a-45b8-8e14-b95aead6df61:3945Admin<p>Pam - Just finished the book last week (and posted about it). I am intrigued, but torn. I'd love to hear what they have to say but not ready for the practicum yet. There are too many other opportunities I want to take advantage of.</p> <p>I am so excited - we are bringing nine folks to ARISE, seven of whom have never been to the Arts Conference and probably never experienced ANY sort of arts conference! I can't wait to see what will happen and how God will move!</p> <p>By the way, I took your suggestions on leadership material to heart and have been greatly blesed...thanks!</p> <img src="http://spin.willowcreek.com/c/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3945" width="1" height="1">
