6 Easy Steps to Enjoying General Conference

For those of you traveling to Fort Worth tomorrow, let me offer you 6 easy steps for having a successful General Conference experience:

1. Don’t forget your hat: Here’s Your Packing List

2. Be prepared to encounter some folks engaged in an unspeakable act: Holy Conferencing.

3. Don’t forget to bring some toilet tissue for the inevitable caucus. (think about it…)

4. If you’ve already closed your letter, open it back up again.

5. Remember, we’re not the only Methodists in the world.

6. Pray.

Oh, there is one more…don’t act like a jerk. The world is watching and making an opinion of United Methodists.

In all honesty, I love you all and bless you as you represent God and His people of the United Methodist Church. Peace.
