Church Visits

As we continue to move toward launching Rock Bridge Chatsworth I am spending some time visiting other churches around the southeast with similar dynamics and mission as our own.

Here are some thoughts on my experiences to date:

• Make sure you are easy to find. "Signs, signs, everywhere signs..."
• Small things make a HUGE difference
• First impressions are hard to get over - good or bad
  
• Host team is the first impression - good or bad
  
• Technology can make things better
  
• Technology can make things worse
• There is more than one way to do church
  
• Excellence from people makes up for mediocrity in atmosphere
• I'm amazed at how much God is doing in so many places!
• Saying you are a church that wants to reach the un-churched is different than actually doing it

Rock Bridge is not perfect. We have flawed people working to love Jesus and His people but I am so honored to serve HIm here with these people and I am SO happy to be home this Sunday.

Keep an eye out for some news, we are close to a decision on launch date and location!
