So I posted this on Dan Kimball's blog, regarding his presentation at the leadership convention I just went to:
"Dan, I was at the KC convention where you spoke. Just wanted to say thank you for all that you shared with us. That whole conference reminded me of why I went into ministry. What an awesome time.
I really appreciate your style of speaking too. I have to say, I've read your books, but somehow the hair caught me off guard. I had to look and ask "Is this guy for real?" But when you opened by sharing what hair gel you use, it put me at ease. Anyone who doesn't take themselves too seriously is OK in my book. And your whole delivery is just...well...real. Thanks for your honesty, your minsitry, and your hair! : )
BTW-did you notice there was a disco ball in that room... : )"
That last line is a reference to one of his books, where he makes fun of himself for putting a disco ball in a worship space in an early attempt to think outside the box.
AND I GOT A RESPONSE!!! He wrote back on said blog:
"David - yes, I saw the disco ball. I didn't want to comment out of respect to the church (although I certainly wanted to!)
I am glad the hair became your friend."
Just thought I'd share that with all you fine peeps.
