My hubby is there.....*sniff,sniff* maybe someday when I am not tied to a full time job outside the home I will get to go with him. I have watched all the DVD's of the past 2 years and I would LOVE to go.

I would love to go, but alas, I not qualified according to their terms.

Hope they have a great time!

This is the first time in over 20 years that I'm not going. As far as inspiration goes BOTT has been one of the highlights every year and I was always excited about it. I love the Manguns, enjoy the fellowship and have always thought that BOTT was the best meeting going. That being said, I simply chose not to go this year because the last several years have pretty much seen the same speakers over and over and over.

Great folks. Great talent. I guess I just need something fresh to get excited about it again.

In any case, God bless the Manguns, BOTT and every hungry soul that goes there seeking a touch from God.

20 years - has it been that long? No wonder I'm feeling so old. I was at the first BOTT. There was only about 3-400 preachers that year but it sure grew fast after that. That was the first time I heard Jeff Arnold preach. I remember everyone singing "Send Down the rain Lord". Makes me want to shout now just thinking about it.

I have discovered that is the danger of all conferences. You have one or two successful conferences and they think only "this group" can make it happen.

I quit going to a number of women conferences after the same thing. Sometimes an individual can bring it every year, like Vesta Mangun, but not everyone can.
