Conferences and gatherings are a great way to share ideas, passions, and battle scars. Each kind is different and brings with it a unique culture.

It is important to understand that being sick is a great reason to stay home from church. Some may say that God will heal you if show up to the house of the Lord, but it has been my experience that everyone in the place is going to get sick with whatever funk YOU brought in the house. Love each other, stay home.
