I hope you found my Summit talk stimulating - now I'd like to hear from you. I've posted some process questions and am hoping to get a discussion started around each one. I'll check back often and throw in any comments that I think might be helpful. You can also find resources and information about a workshop I'll be doing.

Your Responses to Session 9!

 Here are some of the comments we've received by text or email...

"Tell Bill thank you! We stepped away from leading a large phenomenal church to answer the call to start over in a community across the country. We are in our mid 40's and had reached what others saw as the pinnacle. But that was not what He wanted. Thanks, God spoke to us through Bill.Thank you... thank you..."

"Best. Prelude. Ever."

"Thank you for a awesome experience!! Count on me for changing this word for Christ!!"

I don't normally say this but God spoke to me during Bill's last session. I heard God loudly and during the video "Here am I" he gave me clear direction for my next steps in ministry. Thanks for allowing God to use you to make a difference in my life.

Wow! Two days later the talks, songs and videos keep replaying in my head and heart. God led His BEST to teach us about leadership at this conference. Thank you so much for doing so much to bless so many.

Great Summit! My first. Life changing. Please make the "Here am I" video available it was very powerful and should be shared with the world.

At the close of Bill's Session 9 we recited together some sayings/vows. They were exceptionally meaningful to me. Is it possible to get a copy of that list? Thanks for your help.

Sean -- The "Here am I" video is called "A Thousand Questions" and is available on this DVD along with two other videos: http://www.willowcreek.com/wca_prodsb.asp?invtid=PR31699 Dave -- here are the commitment statements: God, I yield myself fully to you. I embrace your calling on my life. I will do your bidding without delay. I will refuse you nothing. I will endure all hardships. When I don’t feel your presence, I will still be faithful. I will seek to love you as you have never been loved before. Here am I; send me.

Last weekend at EFCN, Pastor Dale ended the sermon on marshaling the congregation to change our city, with Chris Tomlin's music video "God of this City". This message zinged my soul! Today I was reminded this was also the closing music that sent all of us at the Summit to change to the world to God's purpose and glory.

Please let me know how to get the prayer Bill prayed (which was influenced by Mother Theresa) for Session 9 -- it was very inspirational. Please help me -- this was my first summit and the Lord rocked my world. Thanks!

Sancta, see my comment above for the prayer you referred to.
