Road Trip 2010: What's Up With the VW Bus?

It all started with a crazy idea. How do you talk about the journey of Christian discipleship without boring every kid that comes to camp. Then it hit me. Discipleship is like a journey -- a road trip. And if we're talking about road trips there's no better vehicle to capture all the excitement than a classic VW Bus -- the ultimate road trip machine. I wanted to feature a VW Bus in our video and our brochure, but where to find one? I figured we could find one to borrow and then we found one on Craig's List for next to nothing. A few weeks and several repairs later and we have a working VW Bus. It runs great and what a hoot to drive! You'll be seeing a lot more of this vehicle -- in our promotional material, on some of my recruiting trips and camp meeting. For those of you coming to camp we'll be featuring our VW throughout the week. Everytime you see the VW I hope you'll think about the ultimate road trip that Christ wants to take you on. It's going to be an amazing journey. I hope we can travel together this summer.
