Making Church More Exciting
Earlier today, Sofa found himself caught in a conversation about how exciting Church… doesn’t always come across as. So this evening after work, a couple of us took a quick survey of the people we could randomly find, and asked them “How would you make church more exciting?”. These are the top ten answers we got:
- In door fireworks… At any given moment
- Britain’s got talent style buzzers used during the sermon. Give one to every member of the congregation.
- If the preacher goes over the allocated time slot… Paint ball guns…
- Mute button on the worship leader for when he / she goes off on one.
- The Bible reading as a dramatic 4d experience.
- A gunge tank… Because they’re not used enough these days…
- Certain pews are connected to a surprise underground rollercoaster. Perfect seats for visitors / Bishops just popping to say hi.
- The team in charge of song lyrics on screens / handouts subtly change a few lyrics here and there. Watch and see what happens.
- After the service ends – organise fort building challenges using the pews / chairs / leadership team – to help build community.
- Employ a clown to welcome people in.

Personally I quite like Oceans…
But if Clint wanted to make his own David Suchet style Bible recording. I would so buy that.
What Should Christians Get Mad About During Christmas?
There are cycles to many things in life. While the Church calendar heavily suggests what certain churches should do when, one could predict that Christians would get upset over something on the lead up to Christmas / Easter.

Here’s the cinema advert reference explained. But here’s another advert that been recently banned – and is worth a watch.
This list may well be updated whilst we actually get closer to Christmas….
Dare To Care?
Well. Here is a thing that, well… I can’t help but feel this needs to be watched by more people…

Normally, when I hear about things that Jesus didn’t say, I think of something like this…
or this…
Or indeed…
Well someone has had the bright idea of turning it into a movie…
*I say politics… I understand how GOP and “emails” are a political reference…
