		<description>DJ,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I know what you mean.  I&#039;ve never considered myself the Type-A personality most of the church planting orgs say you need to be.  The problem is that God doesn&#039;t always call Type-A&#039;s to be leaders in His church and we can&#039;t deny His call on our lives.  I&#039;m with you, it&#039;s time to take the leap of faith and follow God where ever He leads with out Type-B personalities.</description>

		<description>I wasn&#039;t at Catalyst, but I know the feeling.  Any conference in fact drains me.  So many ideas, so many powerful speakers, so many new shiny objects to think about.  Ironically I often feel paralyzed instead of energized and moved to decisive action.</description>

		<description>Hi DJ, I went to Catalyst last year and really enjoyed it.  But I definitely felt the longing to be just 1/100 as charasmatic and inspiring as any of those guys, and the feeling of wanting to go home and build a BIGGER and BETTER and MORE EXCITING (flashy) church and wrestled with that.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But from what I have seen from this year&#039;s conference is that it seems like a lot of the speakers really went deeper to the heart issues and brought it back home to personal character and dependence on God, which is awesome, and is lived out in the lives of many of those speakers.  Reading the notes from Francis Chan&#039;s message really hit me, especially &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.timliu.org/2009/04/but-by-holy-spirit-francis-chan.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this part&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>I think you&#039;ve nailed something I was feeling in the back of my mind. It&#039;s a very narrowly-focused conference. I really enjoyed hanging back with you guys and just getting to know you all - there&#039;s not enough networking time, with so many wall-to-wall, high-powered personalities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It&#039;d be really interesting to hear from the Catalyst team on how &lt;em&gt;they&lt;/em&gt; would describe their audience and goals. It&#039;s certainly not targeted at guys like me, although I got a lot out of it as a church planter, worker, and ministry supporter. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Who are your role models, personally or professionally?</description>

		<description>Role models are a big part of what shapes us as people, and as leaders. So, if during a leadership conference, we only hear from entrepreneural leaders of large churches, while that is very motivational and energizing, I also wonder about how that shapes the rest of us who are not entrepreneural, not large church pastors, not conference speakers.</description>
