After a few days to reflect on the Southern Baptist Convention Pastor’s Conference and Annual Meeting, in addition to all the great messages, informative reports and important business, certain key moments have come to mind. I will share those over the next few days.
Despite the fact that the week’s schedule was extremely full and we tried to attend everything on the docket, there were some times of escape. Between two very active teenagers at home and one in college, homeschooling and the pastorate, sometimes several days go by where it seems that my wife and I just pass in the driveway. Instead of two ships passing in the night, we are more often like two vehicles passing on the highway.
During the convention, other than the Pastor’s Wives Conference, we spent the whole time together. It was wonderful. Probably only pastors know how much corporately worshipping God while holding your wife’s hand is a rare thing to be treasured. Another thing to be treasured is finding an out-of-the-way Thai restaurant in which to share a quiet dinner together. During the convention, we were able to savor both.
