Tomorrow it will be May…and that means the 5th annual Yosemite Summit will finally be upon me. And while I say it every year, I need it this year more than ever. It’s been an extremely busy year. You can tell partly from the lack of posts to this blog! I’m glad the Summit filled up [...]

Soon it will be time for a small band of men to get away from the hustle and busyness and life and ministry and go where it is so quiet and serene you can almost hear the Voice of God audible in the wind… But first, it is time to open registration for Yosemite Summit [...]

What is Yosemite Summit? It’s hard to describe. It’s not just another children’s ministry conference. It’s not just a retreat, it’s something incredibly unique and life transforming.
