I got some interesting feedback from the evotional this week. Someone emailed me about another theater church that has “seasons of purge”. It’s a series of messages focusing people on why they attend. Members need to fall into three categories: new in the faith, serving in the church ministry, or recovering and in need of healing.
I love those three categories.
I think forcing people to know why they attend NCC is a great idea. Most people just attend without much thought beyond “I like it.”
This church forces the issue: serve or leave.
The end result is a purging.
