Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Chicanery Conference Program":

I read the real program. I tried to find something useful in it. I noted that "Word" was used a few times (not as many as "coaching", etc.). Prayer, lots of prayer. What happened to an emphasis on Word and Sacrament ministry? How will any church grow without it!?!?

After reading the program, all I could think was, "What a bunch of crap."

GJ - My version is funnier.
