Second day of the conference, first speaker at 9AM was Eric McManus he talked about “Space Travel” based o Acts 17.
1st Space – v.16 – Jews, God-fearing Gentiles (church, Christian circles)
2nd Space – v.17 – public square to all who happened to be there
3rd Space – vv.19-21 – Paul was invited to explain his hope to the unbelievers
…move from 1st space and be present in the 2nd space and be invited in the 3rd space.
After Eric McManus, there was a panel discussion (Q&A). The Senior Pastor of Capital, Rick Cole, facilitated it with Bill Hybels and Eric McManus on the panel. After the discussion, me and Bro.Mark even had the chance to approach Bill Hybels and consult with him about the vision for the White Harvest Missions’s Center.
After lunch we attended our first break out session. I went to “The Gutter” by Craig Ross. He is the founder of XXXchurch.com, a website devoted to telling the truth about porn. The website had over 70 million visitors since it began 5 years ago and almost half a million people using X3watch Accountability Software. (binigyan pa nga nila ng CD nung software lath ng umatend ng conference….Cool!)
After the breakout, we had 3 hours of free time. Session resumes at 6PM. Pumunta muna kami sa house ni Bro. Mark na si Dave & Sue Batz. Malapit lang sila sa Bayside Church also in Sacramento. What a nice house they have and a BIG backyard….with picnic tables, hammock, and lots of fruit trees – apple, grapes, pomegranate, etc. (Masaya na naman!!! :-D) ….and we had another “Lasagna Dinner”….whewh!…busog na naman. We had a nice conversation with them and Bro. Mark shared to the couple the vision for the Mission’s Center. There were very kind and generous. They opened their home and assured us that we can visit and stay when the need arises. Praise the Lord! What a blessing!
Balik na kami ulit sa conference at Capital.
The session started with worship led by the first musical guest, Israel Houghton and The New Breed – the Worship Team of the largest church in America, Lakewood Church in Texas, pastured by Joel Osteen.
Pastor Rick Cole was the speaker. He talked about “how big is our God” and dreaming BIG dreams. He shared about his dreams for their church and what God is doing in his life and their church. From a church that was stagnant for eight years, they grew 20% and now attendance is reaching 4,000.

DAY 7
Dream It 08 Conference—Day2
Capital Christian Center, Sacramento, CA
Awesome speakers!
Erwin McManus; Bill Hybells; Rick Cole
Everyone’s been affirming God’s vision to us. Amen!
The Worship: Doug Reid is good; Israel Hope & Newbreed is great!
Had a chance to meet an Americanized Filipina, my age, going to CCC. Her name is Kresten.
Met some Filipinos, too. They know Crossroads; we gave them our email.
Went near Bayside Church to have dinner fellowship with Dave and Sue—awesome, delicious lasagna. The fruit-bearing trees in their huge backyard have prunes—it’s good. This is the first time for me to see trees with fruits of grapes, pomegranates, almond, peach, prunes…umm, what else?
