Nothing works for everyone

The problem with CIR or may other meetings is that we start with three streams of people. People that are prayer people, relationship people or action people. CIR has all three. But it is more complicated than that. There are at least three levels of experience, beginngers, veterans and the in-between. So there are now three streams and three experience levels so we now need to organize 9 different conferences to meet everyone's needs. But beyond that there are at least three different thinking models. There are the theory people who want to talk about the theology and theory behind city reaching. The practical people that only want to talk about practical ideas that they can try. And there are the story people that want to talk about everything through stories. So we now have 27 different conferences (3 x 3 x 3) that need to be organized to meet everyone's needs.
