Retreat!

I'll be MIA for the next few days while our pastors and wives all retreat. We don't do everything well at McKinney, but we do retreats pretty well. They're usually close - we're retreating this week to Dallas. Close enough we don't spend the whole time driving, but far enough away we're not tempted to run home for anything.

The other thing we do with retreats is play pretty hard and pray pretty hard. We don't do a lot of hard core work on staff retreats... especially if our spouses get to come. These times are primarily about connecting and relaxing. We work hard in the office, and need to cultivate those relationships without an agenda. It helps us build a good team mentality. We know each other's spouses. We know each other's kids. We care about each other, so we work well together.

So, I'll be unplugged until Wednesday or Thursday. Have a great week.
