Seminar at the DG National Conference
If anyone is going to be at the DG Conference this weekend, I’ll be doing a seminar on how the gospel gives us a new way to look at productivity and new reasons to care about productivity. Looks like I’ll be giving the seminar twice, at 1:00 and 3:00 on Friday (tomorrow) afternoon.
I’d love to meet anyone who is going to be there, so feel free to stop up after and say hi!
Also: I enjoy really, really hard questions. So come with the most challenging questions you have and I’ll be happy to give them my best shot.

Hmm…you might have to convince me further to come to your talk! There are other compelling speakers there as well…
Nah, I will definitely see ya there! Checking out Kevin DeYoung’s seminar as well. I’m not sure who will be my final pick.
I’ll try and stump ya!
You are my first seminar choice Matt….I have enjoyed your blog and look forward to meeting you.
I’ll be there. I’m looking forward to it. I listened to the interview you did on the Connected Kingdom podcast. I suspect some of those themes will make their way into tomorrow’s seminar.
I enjoyed your seminar on Friday. As a 20+ year business person in middle management at a large company, I was re-inspired to take seriously trying to improve productivity in my work and that of my team, using the holistic definition of productivity you discussed. I also look forward to reading some of the material you have posted here. Thanks.
Hi Matt,
Thanks for your presentation on the gospel & how it sharpens our focus onto productivity that lines up with the Kingdom and God’s sovereignty. I meant to e-mail you right after the conference, but as I mentioned after you spoke – I’m in the midst of raising two kids. Please include a chapter in your book on teaching our kids to be wise in their productivity & zealous for good works, as the Lord directs their paths.
In His Grip,
Dani Swope
Hi Matt,
Was this seminar recorded and is it available online anywhere? I can’t see it on the DG media page for the 2010 conference, but would really love to listen to it if you’re able to make it available.
Many thanks,
James Taylor
There was unfortunately a technical error, and so the audio was not captured. I might do it again at church, and then post the audio from that.
Matt, thanks for letting me know. Would love to listen to it if you do present the seminar again and are able to record it.
