Deeper Still Tuesday

Melanie - June 16, 2009

It's time for Deeper Still Tuesday and even though we said last week that there would be a special guest blogger, it's just me. Of course considering that I've only posted once in the last six days maybe I qualify as a special guest blogger.

Oh I kid because while Sophie was having all the big fun at Living Proof in Pittsburgh, I was at home folding laundry and cooking dinner. I thought about posting a picture of the delicious hot dogs I cooked on Saturday night but decided that might be anti-climatic after a video of a real live proposal of marriage by a member of the praise team.

I can't believe I missed all the fun, but the important thing is that my white towels have never been so clean thanks to the new bleach I bought.

Anyway, let's talk about Deeper Still. There are only three Deeper Still events this year and you do not want to miss the chance to see Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, and Kay Arthur all at the same time. It's some kind of Biblical teaching trifecta.

I attended my first Deeper Still event just about a year ago in Atlanta. The whole experience will go down as a defining moment in my life. I took so much away from that weekend and I still go back and reflect on the notes I took during each session. It was that powerful.

The thing I love about the whole Deeper Still concept is that it's Titus 2 in action. Priscilla, Beth and Kay each offer a unique point of view based on their various stages of life and experiences. I relate to Priscilla because she has small children and has days when her quiet time is whatever scripture she's taped by her bathroom sink. I love Beth because she is just so real and always gives some Godly perspective on things that I've completely overlooked. I admire Kay because WOW, talk about some wisdom.

The Deeper Still experience is like a fun weekend with girlfriends with the bonus of walking away knowing that God has done something in you through the words these women share up on stage.

Last year in Atlanta I laughed until I cried and then I cried until I could cry no more. God used it to make a mark on my heart that will never be undone.

If you have the chance, you need to experience it for yourself because no matter how much I've rambled, the bottom line is it's indescribable.

The first Deeper Still of the year will be in Greensboro, North Carolina on July 31-August 1. We'd love to see you there!
