Craig Groeschel: It's Almost Impossible to Put Into Words
27 March, 2011
We first met and fell in love with Craig and his lovely wife Amy when he spoke at Hillsong Conference. His fresh, innovative style and approach opened hearts and had everyone leaning in, so when Brian suggested having him speak at Colour we were pretty excited , and even more excited when Craig accepted instantly. They pastor LifeChurch.tv, have a young family of six children, and reside in Edmond, Oklahoma.
**Disclaimer: Craig and Amy and his family have become a part of ours. The depth of wisdom, preparation and care that he has brought in sharing with our church has left a lasting impression. We are forever grateful and hope that you, Oklahoma, like that we sent him home with a pair of skinny jeans!!! // Karalee
My Colour 2011 highlights
It's almost impossible to put into words how much Hillsong's Colour Conference impacted my entire family. God blessed us in too many ways to describe.
At the top of the long list of things God used to minister to my family, I'd love to highlight:
1. The Worship Environment. The evening sessions of Colour surely touched heaven in a special way. My family loved worshipping together with thousands of other passionate worshippers from countries around the world. We'll never forget the powerful imagery on video and perfectly choreographed dances that drew us into the presence of God.
2. The Volunteer Culture. I've never seen more committed and dedicated volunteers in one place in my life. Jesus said the greatest are those who serve. Hillsong is overflowing with greatness!
3. The Details. My family was blessed to experience much of Colour from behind the scenes and all the sessions as worshipers. I can't imagine the countless hours people poured into every detail: from the music, hospitality, host team, bulletins, drivers, all the way to the personalized gifts for my children!
4. The Speakers. It was an honor to serve alongside Bobbie Houston, Jeanne Mayo, and Lisa Bevere. Bobbie's passion to ignite a "movement of every day girls" is contagious. Jeanne's picture of "cutting down the net" will stick with me forever. Lisa's detailed message on lions and lionesses was packed with power of life-changing truths.
5. The Women of Colour. I was overwhelmed with the women expressing deep gratitude for the Colour conference explaining that their lives would never be the same.
I thank God with all my heart for Pastor Brian and Pastors Bobbie's leadership!
