unpacking catalyst, part three.

At its heart, for me, Catalyst is very much about returning to the basics. The ideas and resources and team strategies are wonderful, and invaluable in themselves, but more than anything else, I always walk away from the conference with a renewed commitment to my personal relationship with Christ. Then, personal ministry flows out of that.

Here's one of the ideas that is sticking with me, from Matt Chandler's talk to Friday afternoon:

The Gospel does not say that you get Jesus and he makes your life better; it is that you get him and he is enough.
