National Religious Broadcasters Conference Begins

I just arrived in Nashville at the NRB Conference, hosted by the Opryland Hotel. We flew in on the flight from Los Angeles having met up with the contingent of Christian broadcasters from Australia. If you’re on the fence, and can get here this weekend, I would urge you to come. Regardless of what you think about the event, it’s still the only place where the majority of Christian media professionals gather in one place for the week. You can check out the conference and schedule here. There are plenty of highlights. I’ll be doing a “Branding Faith” book signing on Monday at 1:30 at the iQuestions booth. The Walt Disney Company is doing a blow out affair on the power of stories on Sunday night and I’ll be hosting them the next morning at the Reach Keynote. We’ll also have Simon Swart, Executive VP and General Manager of Fox Home Entertainment and Phil Vischer from Jelly Fish Labs and creator of Veggie Tales. The Reach Keynotes are the place where we’ll be discussing the future of media and interacting with some significant names in the industry. Also, before the Disney event on Sunday night, the nation of Israel will be hosting a “Celebrate Israel” concert at Two Rivers Baptist Church – just across the road from the Opryland Hotel. There will also be plenty of intriguing workshops and seminars – from branding to media production, to marketing and leadership. Good stuff with good speakers. Hopefully, I’ll see you there.
