Yeah that is exactly why I really want to get to a conference this year. I really want to make it to a couple because I haven’t been, but I also need to be smart about it. SYC is one I’m looking at for next year.

I would totally be down with SYC, but it is in just a couple weeks and I am busy that weekend. It is very high on my “want to do” list for next year though

Doug Fields, Kurt Johnston, Josh Griffin, Chuck Bomar, Katie Edwards, and Jake Rutenbar are great speakers. While I am biased because these people have truly shaped me through Junior High and High School, their passion, talent, and knowledge about youth ministry blows me away.

I used to attend the Willow Creek Conference every year. Fantastic! Also have done the Simply Youth Conference, but Doug Fields puts so much of his info out there already, it was a bit of a rehash. But anything he does is good too. Highly recommend attending a conference each year. Great reminder of what you can be!
