I’m off to the UNOH conference today. I am greatly looking forward to it, as there are some great speakers, it will be a great environment, and I really respect the work of UNOH.
So before I get caught up in it all, I just want to say that I a little dismayed at the money changing hands this weekend. Not specifically at UNOH, because I understand to pull off an event like this it takes money, but at a Christian culture that demands such an event. I guess I am included in that.
I don’t know if I have an answer, or that God agrees with me on this, but if it costing us $350 as a family - and we are doing it cheap - then any quick calculation would work out the budget. And one most weekends, somewhere, a Christian group will be holding an event such as this. What else could be done with that money?
I’m just wondering if we could do it another way. Perhaps meet in a big field and sleep in tents. Be content with local speakers. Do it over the Internet. Again, I don’t know but perhaps it does deserve some thought.

Fortune favours those who with discipline and hard work rise up above the crowd - they will achieve anything they desire.
Fortune favours those who push aside negative thoughts. A laugh a day keeps the troubles away.
Fortune favours those that claim their destiny. Nothing shall stand in their way. They shall find power and prosperity.
Fortune favours those that follow their dreams and desires passionately, pushing aside all others. They will surely be fulfilled.
Fortune favours those who do not let others hold them back.. They learn to cut ties with those who absorb their time, energy and emotions. They will find friends amongst leaders.
Fortune favours those who seek the good things in life. They shall find pleasures beyond the wildest imagination.
Fortune favours those who fight their way to the top. They stand against their competition and win at all costs. They will be rulers of many.
Fortune favours those that do not let others bring them down. They understand that they are too valuable as a person to allow others to treat them badly. They triumph over adversity
Those around you will be in awe of your success, health and wealth when you find your dream and stick to it at all costs. You will win! You will find prosperity, happiness and fame in your life. It is the secret of those who have been successful, and it can happen to you too!
Matthew 5:1-11 (CSV*)
