#235 IF: Gathering

5:14 AM

Today was an all day IF:Gathering meeting, and also unfortunately the last day of it.

We got to hear from beautiful speakers like Bianca Olthoff....

Rise Up

of course Jennie Allen...

Give Jesus Away

so many others, but especially this lady...

Jill Briscoe
Jill Briscoe is a master story teller, and all she does is just tell her story of what God has done, and I swear you could just listen to her for days on end. She communicated so honestly that she's not bold, she's scared at times, and that she's just human, but God's used her when she's said "yes". Some speakers I think "yeah sure", but you know Jill is telling you the honest truth. She went 20 minutes over, and I think we could have let her keep going for another 40 minutes. Seriously just want to bottle up the wisdom God has given her so I can learn from it and see what she's seen.

Today was a lot of getting pushed into doorways as people tried to grab a seat, waiting around in the cold for the next session to start, not eating so we could be first in line, getting some really good shopping done, and more.

My new necklace from IF. In love with it.

But most of all, obviously, the great teaching we were able to hear as well as being challenged to continue doing the "small things" that many have done before us, like investing in believers and discipling.

Also fell in love with this song that has been ringing in my head ever since...


After everything was said and done, we headed over for Jennie Allen's new book release. We grabbed a little grub there, got to meet Jennie Allen, and got a couple of bookmarks made for Melinda and her daughter. 

Then we headed out to Eastside Cafe, where we enjoyed carrot pasta manicotti, and it was amazing.

Came back to the AirBnB we're at, and now we've officially settled in for the night.
