Crew Retreat (Hollywood, here I come...)

I am in love with the creativity of Flood's staff. Every year we have a "Crew Retreat." The idea behind this time is reflection, recuperation, and celebration (I wish I had another "r" word there) for the church body, our "crew". And of course, there is a theme each year. This year's theme: Cops and Robbers (oldies styles). We even created a promo video to get the church in the mood. Enjoy!

I lead a seminar breakout during the retreat. The session was entitled: Grand Theft Auto: Recovering Your View of Self. I created it with a peer, friend and soul sister, Laura St. Pierre (she is gonna marry my boy Kyle someday). The basic tagline was "On the road of life we are often driven by the need to prove our self worth, which steals our true, God-chosen selves. If you’re exhausted of the frantic chase to fill an empty tank, try changing tracks. Take a pit stop with us, reclaim your autobiography, and fuel up on God’s desire for you." We used Eph. 1:3-14 to remind us of our sole identity: Sons and Daughters of God.

Catch you later,
