Thanks for noting Wendy Kopp’s interview at the Willow Creek Leadership Summit as one of the highlights of your experience there–it was a fantastic conference overall and we’re glad that you found Wendy’s thoughts on service so valuable. We are so excited about continuing to grow our movement, and want leaders to join us. If you, or someone you know, is interested in joining the movement, please visit http://www.teachforamerica.org/jointhemovement.

Thanks,
Ellie Campisano
Recruitment Coordinator, Faith Community Relations Team

Craig says “it” can’t be taught, but “it” can be caught. God gives “it.” “It” has a lot to do with the Holy Spirit. Churches that have “it” are incredibly focused, willing to fail, led by people who have “it,” and those people see potential when others see problems. Craig says “the spark of passion ignites the fuel for innovation.” And he says “it” follows big vision. God makes “it” happen. “It” is from him, by him, and for his glory. You may want to watch brief videos about the book’s message at http://www.zondervan.com/it and http://floatingaxhead.com/2008/08/11/the-power-of-it/

Thanks for sharing some of those that impacted you most. I blogged my notes from the Summit if you’re interested in catching up on some of the other sessions.

deviantmonk – That’s only good for those who have a red phone with a direct line to Mr. Norris. Notwithstanding my lack of said phone, this is a good tip.

Best line of the summit!

Blasted!
