White Unto Harvest: Some Reflections

Now having some time to reflect on the White Unto Harvest conference I attended last weekend, I thought a few written thoughts were in order. But let me say that it was one of the best, most God-honoring, and motivating conferences I’ve ever attended. My friend Elder Scott Brown and the whole NCFIC team (www.ncfic.org) really outdid themselves to the glory of God.  My family and those with me all felt very welcomed.  And that is maybe an understatement; it felt like family! There was such a kindred spirit, a tender, holy, passionate feel to the whole thing…it was awesome!

“In our congregation, we sing a great hymn that says, ‘I long to be like Jesus; meek, loving, lowly, mild; I long to be like Jesus, the Father’s holy child.’

This is what is burning in my soul: (more…)
