NEXT

Hahaha-just wanted you to do a double take- this is actually:

10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD GO TO NEXT

1.  Just do something-wink wink…

2.  Keep the main thing the main thing-now, I ALWAYS can use a refresher and encouragement in my focus on the gospel!

3.  C.J. Mahaney, Jeff Purswell, D.A. Carson, Mark Dever, Kevin DeYoung, and Josh Harris-guys these men are preaching at this conference for a reason!

4.  “By This We Know Love”-NEXT worship (this is a song by Judah Groveman that was sung at NEXT last year-you have to be there to understand what it is like to worship with a thousand plus other believers!).

5.  Community Group wonderfulness- meeting in the morning with other groggy-eyed people to prepare your heart for the day and apply what you have learned (this is also a definite way of meeting new people…).

6.  Meet MaryAnn (meet and make wonderful NEW friends-if you do not know anybody at all, don’t let this stop you from going…people I met at last years NEXT have become some of my closest friends-just trust God, He will provide!).

7.  See Jordan (catch-up with wonderful OLD friends, who live in different states, who you REALLY miss!).

8.  Hang with Kathryn (have a whole weekend-often including the trip down and back-to build and share what the Lord is teaching you with friends you spend life with on a regular basis).

9.  Yawn and drink coffee- oh yah, nothing beats the wonderful late night talks that can turn into delirious laughter as you reach the wee hours of the morning thus increasing your need for caffeine (by the way, thanks MaryAnn and Emily for the coffees).

10.  EXPECT the Holy Spirit to move in your heart and reveal truth (God has a wonderful way of meeting us when you intentionally seek Him).
