Vineyard Scholars

I spent a long day listening to papers at the Vineyard Scholars in Sugar Land. I saw several old faces. I spoke to some nice people. Actually there were about 50 people there many from out of town. There were 14 20 minutes presentations.

One was on Farmville. It was funny but serious too.

Two scientists gave the cases for evolution alongside Christianity and a plea for taking global warming seriously. Both of those were hot button topics but there was not much time for discussion.

There were a lot of young post moderns who were on fire for social justice and doing good works.

I got to sit with Bill when he showed around 3 PM. He had been with MH in the hospital. I know that was important.

Harry F. was there too with his SIL.

The last session tonight was by Don Williams. Bill said he would be worth waiting for and he was. But then I took off without getting my wine and cheese. That's going to have to be for the men and women who were staying in nearby hotels. I had a long drive back.

Don Williams knows and jokes with a lot of people in the crowd. He also knew and was mentored by John Wimber. We got some good stories.

There were a lot of women here and three speakers were women too.

I got several ideas for blogs. Stay tuned.
