Eastercamp some initial thoughts...
-American accents you gotta love them. Americans gotta love them period otherwise they'll bomb you.
-...and my testimony is that in high school I got my girl friend pregnant...
-an American can't connect with Kiwi's as well as a Kiwi can
-NZ is not as much of a celebrity culture as America (ie mentioning 10 celebs names in one introductory sermon is not the best way to get the kids attention)
-Anthony Watts is awesome
-my Youth Group kids are awesome (they brought up many of my criticisms of the American's sermon without any prompting from me)
-WestYouth (and Westchurch) is probably one of the most fiercely competitive Youth Groups at Easter Camp
-Ilam Baptist's kids are amusing and cool (some of the leaders aren't half bad either)
-I aren't as opposed to Greg Laurie as I was
-God often uses strange things and coincidences to give us a bit of a kick in our teeth now and again
Feel free to comment or question anything I have written here and I might take time to explain.

- us leaders at IBC were trying to put on a PC face for the American's talks for the sake of our guys too, until we realised about 2 of the kids liked him + the rest thought he was a tosser + criticised the same stuff that made us cringe too.
- 'I'm not', not 'I aren't'.
- ...Strange things and coincidences?
- I like easter bunnies.
Also.... there was a feature about easter camp on Campbell live last night...
