IHP Conference 2007: Last Day: Time Spent

2007-IHP

07-20 In His Presence Conference 2007, originally uploaded by boringcom. Mixed emotions about the end of the conference. My first thought is that it would have been preferred to share this experience with someone (which is what I was thinking on day one). The next thing on my mind is my “calling.” I went forward [...]

IHP Conference 2007: Day One

2007-IHP-d1

07-20 In His Presence Conference 2006, originally uploaded by boringcom. I was thinking on my way here about where I was at when I attended last year’s conference. I had left Pepperdine’s doctorate program the previous January and barely survived the teaching year. I’d gone to San Diego for a national tech conference. I was [...]

IHP: Conference Recap

060721-0857 In His Presence conference – Day Two – Last Full Day. For the second day I seem to have a bit of a nervous tummy. I think I’ve got a handle on the breaks and eating patterns, etc., but there’s a definite anxious anticipation. Last night was so great. The worship leader, Scott Underwood, [...]

IHP: Media Thoughts about Building Up a Tiny Church

First full day of the In His Presence conference… the conference is primarily about worship and supporting worship ministries but there was one session that was about web media that really got my head going. The session before actually hadn’t ended (creating print media) so there was some cross over, essentially graphics design issues. The [...]

IHP: Anticipation, Part 1

In His Presence conference, end of day two.. Anticipation… What’s going to happen tonight? Last night Pastor Lance referred to a “Joe” needing prayer because he was feeling abandoned and he said that this “Joe” had someone, a friend, who was picking at a scab in his life, getting in the way of healing. I [...]

IHP: Waiting

In His Presence conference… Thoughts are everywhere, Sunday afternoon I was driving to Jody’s going away party and the thought struck me that I had been feeling like I needed to wait until I was more “whole” before … well, before I’d be ready for the next level of whatever it is/was that God wanted [...]

NECC Observations: Messenger Bag… my butt!!

I love being able to write anywhere at any time and with a free wifi Internet connection throughout the San Diego convention center I was hoping for lots of opportunities to observe and then write. Interestingly, in the one place where one might see the most new cool stuff to write about, the expo hall/vendors’ [...]

NECC Conference Observation: Negroponte Rocks!

negroponte-rocks-2006

I’ll say it again, Nicholas Negroponte rocks! He was the keynote speaker on the second day of the NECC conference I’m attending here in San Diego. Having heard about the MIT Media Lab for years since my MA from Pepperdine in 2002 and then visiting MIT the past two Novembers, I was aware of this [...]

Invention Requires Not Knowing Any Better

Whenever I heard or read the innovators of the PC revolution talk about what it was like in the “old days,” when they were starting out, to a person they always begin by saying that they had no idea what they were doing when they started out. Or more to the point, they didn’t know [...]
