passion. . . take 2

saturday's passion was awesome. we had three different sessions throughout the day & worshiped again with chris tomlin, crowder, & matt redman. the worship was incredible, but i felt like the messages were just lacking. the speakers did a great job at empowering the university students that were there, but i felt a lot like my faith wasn't there because i wasn't feeling it, or because i had never had a "Jesus encounter". at first, this "encounter" sounded extremely cool, but now it discourages me & almost makes me question my faith. not very encouraging.

however, it was a great weekend! i had a great time being spiritually uplifted by the songs, fellowship, & the overall empowering message of helping others. i still love crowder! he's seriously my favorite performer & i loved seeing him again! overall, i had a great time!

OH! okay, so i totally ran into someone i went to high school with 7 years ago! i was walking around the convference on friday during registration & i recognized this guy, but i had absolutely NO idea where i knew him from. seriously, i spent 2 hours trying to figure it out. finally, after worship on friday night, i saw him again & i stopped him to see how i knew him. turns out, i didn't actually know him, but i had recognized him from high school. i guess i just recognized his face from walking the halls or something. well, he graduated three years before me & now he's working as a worship leader in palm springs. crazy, huh?! i was extremely impressed with myself that i had recognized a face after 7 years! great story, eh?
