| Post subject: | bonnie knox: How to beat the Methodists to Cracker Barrel without changing your service starting time |
| Here are a few tips free of charge, though I'm thinking of starting a business and charging for this kind of advice. Start on time.Don't read the announcements. If they are in the bulletin, on the screen, sent out in emails and on Facebook, you don't need to read them. But if you insist, make wham, bam bullet points, and don't go into detail.Don't sing those 7-11 songs. Stick to the redback and repeat the final chorus no more than once.Cut the parenthetical stuff in your sermons. Cut the speculative stuff in your sermons. Cut the commentary on national politics in your sermon.Instead of begging while every head is bowed and every eye is closed, just invite everyone to the front and get on with the praying.Hope that helps. |

| The only time I will make reference to the bulletin is if we are observing communion, having a business meeting, or having a meal following the service. And even then, it's short and sweet. We do a bulletin, phone tree, monthly newsletter, and website / social media. For me to read the bulletin verbatim would not only be redundant, it would be a huge waste of time. |

| Beating the Baptists is one thing, but beating the Methodists to the Cracker Barrel is an ambitious goal indeed.If you cut all that stuff out of some sermons, you'd be left with about five minutes of preaching. |

| I think there is room for some political commentary in church. There is plenty of it in the Bible |

| Well, I don't actually go out on Sunday afternoons, anyway. I usually fix a fairly simple lunch at home. |
