When Opportunity Knocks

OPEN the door!

I had dinner tonight with the guys from LifeChurch.tv. Their leadership is in town for the Creative Pastors Conference and offered a dinner invitation to 30 area church leaders who might be interested.

I was more than interested.

The people over at LifeChurch are doing some very creative and very interesting things.

First, they are doing the satellite thing and they are doing it well.

Second, they began offering not just podcasts and not just video podcasts but they created OPEN, a website offering all of their videos, artwork, and teaching to churches completely gratis. Unheard of in the world of ministry. Big props for OPEN.

Finially, they are growing like gangbusters and yet whenever I hear from one of their leaders they are quick to say three things:

  • To God be the glory.
  • This is working for us.
  • This might not work for you.

Tonight’s dinner was great and I’m still processing a few things (which is always a good sign). It was a real treat connecting with different ministers and different ministries from all over the country in such an informal and intimate setting.

Big thanks to Bobby and the rest of the LifeChurch.tv leaders. Have a great conference and a safe trip home.
