There’s A bunch of things we do that are unconventional, and possibly to the casual observer considered odd. But I’ve found that the odd is often the most innovative. This page is dedicated to the things that most people aren’t doing and might should be. Even if they have to tone it down some.

So I’ve been reading the book “Kisses from Katie” and the other day after reading a particularly heart wrenching story I walked into my office and looked at the piles of things that I have “collected” over the years. Random things from Storm Trooper Helmets to Spartan swords, all needless (all be it nifty) things Continue reading →

My five best sermon illustrations (Part 2)

Matt Rothacher — Fri, 27 May 2011 03:25:15 +0000

Alright, #4 of my best/favorite sermon illustrations is one that’s slightly embarrassing. Now let me go on record of saying that I am not scared of frogs, the way I am of say snakes, or the creepy little dead girl from the ring. But I’m not liking them on Facebook either. Ok that said here’s Continue reading →

The most fun you can have with twitter. So, I accidentally created a phenomenon that I think will take the twitter world by storm!

The “Undies” show your appreciation

My wife is big fan of “The Office” and to be honest I’d rather have a root canal than have to listen to Michael Scott put his foot in his mouth. It just makes me uncomfortable. One thing that he does well however is honor his employees. He views them like family, however dysfunctional that Continue reading →

So I’m a big fan of videos and I have found that short humorous videos are great for promoting an event or series in your ministry. I’ve included two examples: The first is an ad parody of the popular Sonic ads for our churches building campaign. The point was just to bring awareness. The second Continue reading →
