DNA Event and More Catalyst

This Friday morning, 5/7, Disciple Nations Alliance is hosting a great event on the FCC-Phoenix campus.  It's titled "Recovering the Central Mission of the Church - Discipling Nations."  Click here to view more information on this event.

Here are some more notes from the Catalyst West conference that got me thinking.
Donald Miller

People become a character they play in a story they believe.
Story is a character that wants something and overcomes conflict to get it.
If we’re bored or we think life is meaningless, maybe we are a character that doesn’t know what it wants
God puts a big piece of butcher paper and a box of crayons in front of us and says ‘go for it – have a great time. 
If you choose not to live a beautiful story, it’s the same as choosing to die.

I really liked Donald Miller's session because it got me thinking about my part in God's big story - the story He's 
been telling since the beginning of time.  Do I take my part in His story seriously?  Am I living my part in His 
story or just in my own story that I want to write?

He's got a great entry on his blog called the "What-If Challenge."  Check it out and let me know what you think.
