Thankful that it’s impossible

As I sit back in my chair today thinking of all I have to be thankful for, I’m reminded of how great God really is. I know that if it weren’t for him that none of this would be possible, I wouldn’t be writing to you all today, I wouldn’t be carrying out the passion […]

Fill ‘er up.

Below is a great video showing the type of outreach and compassion the church should be doing. Too often we think there must be an altar call or invitation to salvation after every outreach event we do. Don’t hear me wrong, I think there’s a time and place for the altar and in fact I […]

A prayer for the ‘daily grind’

Christianity today has an article about some new advertising taken out by the Church of England to “soothe commuters travelling into work this morning”. Obviously as we move out of summer into the fall season it becomes a busy time for everyone. The church conducted a survey that shows that this new season brings extra […]

One Prayer = 500 Churches

Pause for a moment… Think about Christ’s Church. (By Christ’s church, I mean every living believer.) Think about the resources God has made available to us. Consider the money we control. Consider the talent, gifts, and passion of perhaps two billion people.

What do you think God could accomplish through […]

What were you expecting?

Do whatever it takes…just get em through the doors, God will do the rest.

I have found myself recently talking about setting and meeting expectations because while the quote, which I’ve heard plenty of times before, sounds good…it simply isn’t how it works.
We see it in children…they raise the level of expectations.
We see it in […]

50 hours, 50 nets…$10.

Now here’s a challenge we can all take on…Anne Jackson is championing an effort to save the 3,000 children that die every day from malaria. $10 buys a net that lasts 3 years, as well as training and treatment for those that didn’t have something as simple as a net.
So…first, click here to donate.
Then…leave a […]

Read this before you lose it

One of the more difficult aspects of being in a creative ministry is that some people don’t understand your ministry (we’ll get back to that word your in a little bit). We all live in our own worlds and while we know the importance of great design and powerful communications, others are focused on the […]

Cowboy church

Many times when I begin a marketing campaign we put on our creative hats and look at new and original ways to tell the story, but sometimes the best marketing is to simply be who you are. A story from the Denver Post tells of a great example. In it Pastor Shorty says it best:

“You […]

30 Days of Sex! Praise the Lord!

Now here’s a challenge I can get my hands around! Relevant Church in Tampa, Florida has issued a 30 Days of Sex (or not if you’re not married) challenge. There are so many cool things about this.
First it is getting a ton of coverage and it’s all positive. Unlike many of the shock campaigns this […]

The Holy Highway of I-35

Yep…this is a bit much; and we wonder why the world thinks we’re out of touch.
