18 to 32

This is the age range that is missing from church these days according to Barna and other experts on this group of people. My question is this true at Meadow Park? Is this true at the Saturday night service? Is this true at the Sunday morning services?

The big question that every church I think is asking is if this is the case, how do we engage, how do we be relevant, how do we (with out pushing them further away) ask them why they aren't coming?

Thoughts?

See you Saturday.

3 Ways to Get Someone You Know to Saturday Night Worship

It's been said, (and I happen to agree with it) that word-of-mouth is the best form of advertising. It's also by far the cheapest form of advertising--which is perfect for Saturday night worship. Here are three ways to get the word out about Saturday night worship.

1. Find out your neighbor/co-worker/friend's favorite restaurant and chances are, there's one near Meadow Park. Invite them to Saturday night worship then take them out after the service.

2. Almost EVERYONE has a cell phone these days---text them. Even if they don't know how to text. Text them anyway, they'll enjoy the message

3. Tell them there's free coffee and cookies during worship. Free stuff always works.

If you have any of your own ideas...feel free to add them to the comments link below.


See you Saturday!

Let It Rain

The title of this post was inspired by Jon Kissner's comment which you can read below in the comments section.

Jon's comment was in response to the God-timed rain storm we had during this past Saturday night worship. It was the perfect addition to the service--something that only God could do. Make it rain. It simply reminds us that God's timing is perfect and when we wait on the Lord...He will provide.

Thanks to all those that came and worshiped at the first official new Saturday night worship service. Remember, it's every Saturday night from now on at 6pm!

See you Saturday.

How to Sleep-in Sundays

Step 1. Attend the Saturday Night Worship service @ 6pm
(by the way, the service now is every Saturday night from now on!)
Step 2. Turn your alarm off when you get home after the service.
Step 3. Set your thermostat to 68 degrees for a nice cool night.
Step 4. The next morning...sleep in!

That's it!


See you Saturday Night.
