In just 79 days, over 5,000 of us will be gathering at the Gwinnett Center for The Orange Conference 2014!
To help you and your team prepare, we’re going to take you through a few highlights of the conference experience this week. First up, Orange Conference is best experienced with a team. Part of our team includes our Orange Bloggers. So, along with the content we post each day this week, we’ll also point you over to what our Orange Bloggers are saying and doing on their sites. They’ll tell you about their past experiences and what they’re excited to see at OC14.
Bonus! We’ll be giving away something awesome every day this week right here on the blog. Not only that, but a few of our bloggers will also have some freebies you might be interested in so be sure to check their blogs out as well. Buckle up, we’ve got a great week ahead!
TODAY’S GIVEAWAY: Coffee. Our Orange staff are big coffee drinkers, and we love finding new brands to be excited about. We’re thrilled to announce our new coffee partner for OC14, Phoenix Community Coffee. Today’s winner will receive a Gift Bag of java goodness. In order to win, simply comment on this blog post, FB post or via Twitter with hashtag #OC14. We’ll draw one person randomly at 5 p.m.

“[Orange Conference] was inspiring and refreshing. We walked away more determined
to love our kids and help them get to know our great God.
Thanks for all you guys do for all of us.” – Chris, Rochester Christian Church
