I just can't wait for Christmas Convo.

Clayton King and Lon Solomon will also be good. As for the rest...well, Convo is for Undergrads :lol:

This is the third straight year Clayton King has been brought in for the fall SEW. Im guessing the folks really like him.

He does a good job--he's an excellent choice for SEW.

I'm glad that Jonathan is going to be speaking on Wednesday's. I've really enjoyed his preaching at TRBC lately.

That's a shame. As much as people complain about it, it really does have it's days.

I'm really looking forward to hearing Ed Dobson. He was one of my favorite speakers from the 1980s at Liberty.

If it wasn't for the praise band, I'd consider it.

that part of it takes up all of 5 minutes. But if you've never been, I guess you wouldnt know that. :wink:

The praise band can't play for five minutes. They're required to play for 20 minutes everytime they play, and sing the same thing 400 times just to hear themselves sing it.

I just don't like the praise band, at all. They're good, don't get me wrong, but it seems like they play forever just to hear themselves.

I can't believe the students get a 3-day Fall break AND a week long Thanksgiving break. I remember when Thanks. break was only that Thursday & Friday. Then, they took away the 3-day fall break & added it to Thanks. break to make one whole week. NOW, they get both. You crazy kids have it so good. :pbjtime
