It was fun to share a couple of evening meals with Baptist Pastors in Sydney on Thursday and Friday this week and earn my keep in between by facilitating two workshops on Power and Healthy Congregational Ministry. The Revive conference was held at Olympic Park and featured Mark Wilson from Perth as Keynote Speaker.
