Early Monday morning I will be joining three men from my church on a 10-hour journey to Louisville, Kentucky, home of fried chicken, Southern Seminary, and most importantly, Together for the Gospel 2008.
Over the next week or so, starting tomorrow, I will be posting thoughts, reflections, and stories leading up to the conference, and from the conference itself. This is not meant in any way to be live-blogging, but instead, these will be essays about my journey. Yet I hope that through my “story†those who are not able to attend will benefit from the truths that will be presented. My goal is to post each day, but circumstances and time constraints could interrupt my plans.
Tomorrow I will be posting an essay titled “The Gospel Gripped My Heart,†as I begin to define the gospel. Saturday, Lord willing, will be another post about the purpose of the Together for the Gospel conference, and I will finish answering the question “what is the gospel?†From that point, the outline is very loose. Here’s a preview of what to possibly expect:
Day 1: Monday – travel, stories from the road, and more
Day 2: Tuesday – Day 1 of T4G, truths from the messages, applications from the messages, stories from the day
Day 3: Day 2 of T4G, more truths, applications, and stories from the day
Day 4: Last day of T4G, additional truths, applications, and stories from the day, along with some final thoughts.
Day 5: Home – final thoughts and wrap-up.
I pray this will serve you as you join me as we gather Together for the Gospel next week.

Hello Tim,
I could not find an e-mail link so I don’t want this to sound like an advertisement, but I am a high school blogger. I have a link to your blog on my sight and I would like your permission to leave it there. My site is http://criticalthink.wordpress.com/
Thanks,

Glad you are coming to the conference. Maybe we will bump into each other.
Are you going to the Band of Bloggers as well?

This is so exiting I live in Louisville! Are you going to be on the Seminary’s campus or somewhere else where your readers can meet you?
