Lighten Up: Osheta the Narniac
You may not be aware of this, but Greg is a MennoNerd. What is a MennoNerd, you ask? According to their website, “MennoNerds is a network of Anabaptist bloggers, tweeps, Facebookers, and Google plussians (just made that word up) from around the Internet.” They recently started a series of fun video blog conversations and they’ve been talking about books. This is Osheta Moore’s contribution to that conversation. We love Osheta. We love MennoNerds. Enjoy!

What an incredible gathering we had last week! It was invigorating, informative and fun! What stands out most to me was the family-feel of the conference.
