Network News

When I came on staff here at Highlands, our executive pastor told me about a networking opportunity with area pastors but I was, frankly, uninterested. “I’ve got so much to do, there’s just so many hours in the day, etc.” Later, I went back to him and said “hey, I think I’ll reconsider that, perhaps I might would like to connect to learn and share. Except for answering a couple of emails, I haven’t done a thing with this though. Just this week I received an email from a nice lady on staff at Saddleback inviting me to a meeting of “regional point persons” while I’m out at the small group conference later this February. Related to that, I’m reading a book right now called “Never Eat Alone” by Ferrazzi on the importance of building relationships to help accomplish goals. So, my thinking is that events are conspiring to help me learn how to build relationships for growth. I’m open to it. I have no idea what I’m doing yet but I think I’ll start by just trying to help people in this region and go from there.
