I’m sitting in the Orlando airport, awaiting the arrival of my last meeting before heading out tonight back to LA. Airport meetings are a pain, especially when the people meeting are on different airlines in different terminals with different security checkpoints. Doh!

Just finished up lunch with Cameron Strang (president of Relevant Media Group). Cameron and I met 10 years ago and haven’t kept in touch much. It was good to get re-acquainted. I am particularly exited about some of the synergies that exist with Relevant and some of the stuff I am involved in like the Foursquare NextGen Summit (placeholder site) and Church Marketing Sucks. The conversation is just getting started!

Also had a very brief greeting/meeting with Bill Seaver, a blogger I’ve recently started paying attention to. Bill just joined the team at White Post Media, and has a real passion for seeing new media used strategically for churches and ministries.

It’s been a long weekend with several great meetings. My workshop yesterday at NRB/Reach went well, but was poorly attended. I started to take it personal before I realized other presenters experienced similar sized crowds. Who wants to go to a workshop on Sunday afternoon in Orlando? I didn’t think so.

I’m looking forward to getting back home tonight. Jamaica is coming down with some sort of cold so I better be there to prepare the hot tea and fumble through my feeble attempts at sympathy. Yes, I need help.

I’ll be back here in Orlando in April for the National New Church Conference. And I don’t have to speak on a Sunday for that one!
