Yesterday I left Mark Batterson a comment and today he responded!
Rob,
Look forward to meeting at WiBo. Let's try to connect during a break. I have our team with me so we're hanging some too...and I already have a lunch scheduled...but I definitely want to meet. I'll listen for those boos :)
Mark.
Here is the comment that I left him...(with some recently added commentary in parenthesis.)
Mark,
My pastor and I are coming to WiBo in a couple of weeks. I would love to say hey while we are there. I know you are busy...please don't hesitate to say heck no (my first attempt to be relevant)...but I would love to meet you. Again there is no pressure, but I thought I would go for the ask and take a chance (second attempt at being relevant by saying go for the ask). If you are scared or think that I may be a stalker we can meet in a well lit area around a lot of people...joking (my attempt to be funny part one). I told my best friend from high school, Chad Johnson (name drop...he knows Chad J), how much I loved In A Pit (just in case words of affirmation are his love language) and he told me to contact you if I was going to be in town. Again, no pressure, but be prepared to be booed from the audience if you say no...joking again (my attempt to be funny part two).
Hey Rob, glad to hear he responded back to you and so quickly! (I know you said it really means a lot to you when people post comments- just doing my part). Also, today during service the pastor talked about The Shack- what are the odds since you just told me about that book?? See you soon!! ~Lindsey
