There’s an exclusive club in Sweden that holds but a few precious members. They consist of the people at the computer/projector table, who have done the Oasis conference Saturday mass twice. The Oasis conference stays two years at every location. And the highlight of the conference is always the big mass on Saturday. The powerpoint [...]

Behold, I Make All Things New
I wouldn’t be true to form unless I wrote a new program this year as well for the Oasis conference. The upside of writing new software all the time is that you get to stay on the bleeding edge of features. Anything you could possibly want in a program is just a few lines of [...]

I Spot an Oasis on the Horizon
Currently writing this from my mom’s place in Skövde. I’ve relocated my base of operations here temporarily, because Oasis, the big annual conference, is due in a few days. I’m nervous. I’ve planned the whole thing from Skärhamn this year so I really haven’t talked to my team yet so far, and I’m worrying about [...]

Eva and Emil are handling the current seminar, and there’s only one meeting to go now: The final service this evening. It’s been a long week. I’ve worked from early [...]

Oasis, Part II
So another day is over. This is now the evening of Day 2 of the conference, although this is more like day four or five for me, since we’ve been up since Monday morning working on all the practical stuff for the conference. The morning service gave me more time to work on my program. [...]

Oasis, Part I
The Oasis conference rolled in today. We’ve been preparing since Monday morning, of course, but the first meeting was today. Sooo many things to do, so much to consider… and the sweetness of seeing it all work out in the end. It’s cool. I had to coordinate with the worship leader to get songs and [...]
