Bill Hybels

I got invited to Bill Hybel's house for dinner tonight because of my role on the Willowcreek multi-site panel. Pastor Joel went with me. I told him that I felt like I was going to a Junior High dance. I was sort of nervous because I didn't know how formal or informal it would be. Plus I've admired Bill Hybels (founding pastor of Willowcreek) for so many years that it was somewhat surreal to meet him "in the flesh."

Once I got past the "what am I doing here awkward phase" it was great :)

The house was pretty packed with people so lots of great conversations. Even bumped into a few old friends who I had no idea would be there.

Oh yah, they had a chocolate desert that was amazing. I'm so glad God invented chocolate :)
