It’s been quite a week here in New Orleans, especially for our SBC first-timer, Chris Flynn. As we get ready to head back to Illinois this morning, we talked a little about he’ll remember the week after the fog of long days and lots of sermons has lifted. Here’s what Chris said: “It was re-charging to be around so many people who are charged.”
I agree with him. Attending a Southern Baptist Convention is at once tiring and energizing. And I think the temporary things that drained us – the heat, late nights, too many beignets – will fade as we remember the important conversations that were had, the historical events we saw right in front of us, and the renewed sense of not being alone in this that we felt.
Thank you for reading along this week!
Morning in New Orleans.
Fred and Elizabeth Luter are introduced to the convention.
A streetcar ride, our last New Orleans-y thing to do.
