The conference was an eye-opening experience for me. I know that we're writing software that helps church staff get their jobs done more efficiently, which helps the church do what it was meant to do - minister to people. At least I thought I knew it. After this weekend, I realize I didn't really have a good grasp on the reality of it. The conference was a humbling experience, since it immersed me in the world of church administration and technology. Talking to so many people who use our software every day gave me a renewed sense of just how much everything we do here impacts church staff and the kingdom of God.
Now I really know what I thought I knew, and that makes me even more excited about the steps we're taking to make our software better than it's ever been.
