A few months ago, we were reminded how blessed we are to attend Willow Creek, and as a result get an inside pass to one of the world’s best leadership conferences, the Summit. We attended this year, and decided then that we needed to take a weekend this fall to do a Leadership retreat of sorts. We wanted to focus on self leadership and take some time out to work and wrestle with God on His plans for us.
We came out of our weekend with a few thoughts to build upon for our next time.
#1: It is not WHERE we are going, but WHO we are becoming.
#2: 2008 is going to be a crazy year of change for the Smitties, and we needed to rest in God right now… we need to enjoy every moment.
#3: We are a team, and we both need to function well individually for “us” to function well. We lean on each other, we support each other and we work together. It is fun like that.

#4: Jeff felt a call on his heard to study the nature of discipline. He wants to study how is it cultivated, increased, adopted and maintained.
