7/11 Vintage Us

Screen shot 2010-10-29 at 9.29.15 AM This weekend Oct. 29 & 31 we will be presenting the 7th out of the 11 messages scheduled for the series Vintage Us.  Now that we are just past the half way point it gives me opportunity to try reinvision us for the rest of the series. Often times in a longer series (6 weeks or more) we can hit a lull in our inviting as well as our attending efforts.

So I hope these thoughts will stir some thought in you.

First, we have 5 great weekends left a list of those specific messages are below.  And if you are new t the series click here for a series description.


October 29 & 31:  Full Disclosure — Suffering and Persecution (Acts 5b, 7 & 8)
November 5 & 7:  Leaders-R-Us — God Invites You to Lead (Acts 6)
November 12 & 14:  The End of Exclusion, Part One — Godʼs Inclusive Vision (Acts 15)
November 19 & 21: The End of Exclusion, Part Two — Godʼs Expansive Community (Acts 15)
November 28:  The End of Exclusion, Part Three — The Core that Pulls Us In (Acts 15)

Second, I know that the programming team are prayerfully bringing their best efforts to craft services, that are fresh, Biblically relevant, creative and mindful of our spiritually seeking friends -- all this to say that services will be well done and you can be confident in your inviting efforts.

Third, we want to continue be mindful that lost people matter to God and that those around us need him more than ever.

All this to say hope to see you this weekend and be sure to bring someone with you!

The "Little" & "Extra" Things Matter The little and extra things matter -- especially in planning events. I was reminded of this, this past Friday when I had lunch with a friend. He is someone who has been coming to our church and due to exstensive travel that his work requires is still looking for a way to get more involved. Every time we meet he brings with him a puzzle piece that was given out in one of our services a couple of years ago. He says he keeps it on his dresser to remind him that he is has piece to play in the life of our church -- which was the intent of giving out those to every attendee that weekend. Lest, you think these gestures, atleast in the church world, is for new people or people young in their faith journey. Keep this in mind ... this is someone who has been to his share of church services over his life time and is very familiary with churches. You possibly have one his father's books in your home or you atleast know someone who does. Yet for this seasoned believer a little thing like a puzzle piece is being used in a very meaningful way. So as you plan an event or service, keep in mind that those, seemingly, simple extras do make a difference!

Why We Don't Do the Family Fall Festival Over the past two weeks our church leadership held a series of town hall meetings with our lead pastor Ed Noble fielding questions primarily about the completion of our stewardship campaign, yet it was also opened for any questions about our church life in general. One of the questions that was raised is the subject of this post. "Will we be bringing back the Family Fall Festival?" As the one of moderating the questions and one who had led the event for several years, I decided to answer the question. The simple answer was "no." Here is a re-edited post that I did last year addressing that very question. Beginning in year one of our church’s 17 year history we had put on an annual Halloween event called the Family Fall Festival (FFF) that over the years had grown to be quite an undertaking involving hundreds of volunteers, thousands of pounds of candy and thousands of people in attendance. And for all-intention purposes was a pretty successful event in the life of our church. However, in recent years we have not had this event and it is a good thing. I will explain shortly, however let me first explain what I have deemed as some positives of the event in years past. It served as a great way to introduce ourselves to the community. In 1997 we relocated our church t and with a name change to our church in 1998 we were new and relatively unfamiliar. This event served...
