Creative Chaos – Soul Sabbath
2008 Transformational Leaders Gathering
Holiday Inn International Drive, Orlando
January 19-22, 2008
What would you do if you could set aside all the responsibilities that come with full time ministry?
What is the one thing you would love to explore to grow as a pastor just for the sheer joy of it?
If you could really create some "away time" for you and your spouse, would you do it?
We, as professional clergy, work on the Sabbath, and then peck away at our days off, and still work the other six days, because we are so intent and serious about serving God. Continuing education is driven by skills you need to develop or topics that small groups want to discuss. Time is divided among visits, committees, and appointments that are carefully managed in calendars and PDAs. In the midst of it all, a personal life with family and friends is wedged in and often vies for its own time slot.
Given enough time, the scent of the fresh breeze of the Spirit disappears, the natural creativity that springs from Sabbath dissipates, until healthy ministry and family life gives way to the routine and mundane.
The 2008 Transformational Leaders Gathering, known for its unique style of peer to peer learning and interaction would like to invite you to let the creative chaos of the Spirit into your life for some serious Sabbath renewal. Opportunities are created this year for you to have chance for some Sabbath time away with spouse or family in Orlando, the world's vacation capital. In some limited interactive time with others, you will be able just get away for some personal renewal time that is so vital to your wellness as a leader. In the second track of the event, we would like to open the door to creative in some new and less restricted ways. If you are an early bird registrant, share your one idea, topic, area, you have always wanted to explore as a pastor. Once we have your topic, we will tap our network of pastoral leaders and participants and find a person who has a background, skills, or just a plain passion to walk with you on that journey. Scattered throughout the event, we will have these moments of creative chaos for you to explore, connect, and renew in a unique Sabbath setting.
Watch our web sites – www.transformingchurch.com/tlg and www.wiredjesus.com for more details and the opening of registration in late September. Step out of the routine and take a Sabbath rest in creative chaos, the 2008 Transformational Leaders Gathering.
