Wow, do I feel GOOD! We have just finalized our entire 2008 teaching calendar for The Orchard!
We made this an overnight planning "retreat" and after decompressing last night and gorging ourselves on lots of food, we woke up today and cranked it out! Started out with an awesome time of prayer and reflection, then dove in hard!
So now it's off to a local Starbucks to work on the next few weeks...
Later!
Scott, how many folks are involved in hammering out your teaching calendar?

So are you going to let us in on what you guys came up with for 2008?
I would be very interested to see your calendar and hear about how you decided on topics.

I've enjoyed reading your blog for quite some time now, but here's my first comment. I'd love some insight into your sermon planning process. As a lead pastor myself I'm always looking for ideas with planning. thanks.
