So...why I am going to San Antonio for the Southern Baptist Convention this year?
- I've been asked to serve on the Credentials Committee and it would reflect poorly upon me if I skipped.
- I'm really hoping that revival may in fact break out and I don't want to miss it.
- I am excited about change within our denomination and I want to support it.
- I'm taking my dad with me (he hasn't attended since St. Louis--1980?).
- I have, at times, been extremely proud of my denomination and hope to be so again in SA.
- I love San Antonio.
- I'm looking forward to meeting men that I know only through blogging.
- Casa Rio is a great meal at a great price. Check it out here.
- I want to get my free book from the Annuity Board (excuse me...Guidestone).
- I'm committed to doing my part to help make the SBC the best that it can be.
I hope to see you there!

Dave,
Good list. I appreciate the spirit of your posts & the words of wisdom you left for me the other day.
Don't forget #11- a great martial arts exhibition. For a preview, see my post today.
I would love to go, but will unfortunately be unable to make it.
Safe travels.
My list is much shorter, and much more selfish:
1. Time with my wife.
2. Leaving the kids with my folks in Palestine, TX on the way.
3. Time with my wife.
4. Seeing old friends from my days with the IMB (focus for the year is on part of our old field of service--the former Soviet Union).
5. The Riverwalk.
6. Time with my wife.
7. Authentic Tex-Mex food.
and did I mention,
8. Time with my wife.
Oops, was there anything about being part of what might become the SBC?
Benjie....I like it! You should be easy to recognize...red tie and all...
