Parton and Klaus

The weekend was good. We started very early Saturday morning - 5 am early - to pick up my mom in Fremont, then headed to Cupertino to see a Craig Parton seminar, "From Evangelicalism to the Evangel," and if you ever get a chance to see him, do it! Much of the material is covered in his "The Defense Never Rests: A Lawyer's Quest for the Gospel" and "Religion on Trial," and is inspiring and hopeful. Parton is fiercely intelligent and a great presenter, being a trial attorney himself, and is an apologist extraordinaire, both following and walking aside such as John Warwick Montgomery.


Sunday we spent time talking with Ken Klaus. While we didn't hear him preach, as Rev had his own congregation to attend to, we were able to talk to him alone after lunch and he is gracious and charismatic on a personal level, asking about my brooch, commenting how it matched my shoes and that the photo I took of him and my husband is better than what his publicist uses.
