Here's what the staff of St Silas' will be discovering at Stirling University over the next two days. I should point out that none of these people will actually be present. It's all on DVD. Much as I love him (my first U2 concert - 4th October 1981 @ Tiffany's Ballroom, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow), I'm not at all sure that I want to hear Bono tell me about leading a church. Perhaps he'd like me to advise him on how to sing? More seriously, I imagine he'll be sharing a little on how to use influence effectively on a global stage?

Hi David,
I agree with Beat Attitude that it looks like a good conference but I absolutely disagree with him about Bono. Bono IS the best bit of the conference for me and U2 simply ARE the best band!!
Bill Hybels should be interesting too.
God's blessings,
Rebecca
