hillsong conference challenged me

Spent the last week at the Hillsong Conference and it challenged me.

Sure it was long days, with convicting sermons etc.

What really challenged me was that I should spend less time at christian conferences but really seeking the lost, building on my visions/gifts, and using my time loving God and my neighbour.

I got sick of hearing similar stories about how to value people, how to tell them about Jesus, how to love the Lord. I know already!

I know I don't want to be a mature christian that doesn't actually do anything! I don't want to 'talk amongst ourselves and judge others'. I want to 'talk to others and judge ourselves'.

Sometimes I can be too judgemental of "mature christians" - cause I don't know what they do, what they are going through etc. I just hope I don't turn into what I perceive of some of them - stuck in a comforting, encouraging, validating christian world - and not out amongst the world!

Excuse me if this sounds like the rantings of a 5 minute christian.
