Casa Grande, Multi-Site Church Launch for Christ Life Church

October 17, 2009 in Uncategorized with 0 Comments

Over the next few weeks I will be posting everything that we are learning from our first church launch (if wonder why the word launch? then you need to read Nelson Searcy’s book “launch”)

Our Christ Life Church, Casa Grande location is just three weeks old and we have learn’t a tremendous amount. …. of what to do and what not to do. I will post about the weeks and months leading up to it, the equipment we purchased and did not purchase, volunteers that were raised up, fund-raising and so much more.

Probably the best site with the greatest resources right now that we took a lot away from is Leading Multi Site with Mac Lake

Talk soon,

Christ Life Church Sunday Debrief

May 4, 2009 in Christ Life Church with 1 Comment

We are in our third Sunday of the Ultimate Fight Series. I can truly say that I think 2009 has had some of the most solid-consistent and Spirit-birthed messages for Christ Life. We started the year off with One Month To Live. This was a 6 week ALL CHURCH campaign that allowed us to truly evaluate our  live. During this time we also had a record number of people connected in Life Groups.  Right after that series we jumped into “TRANSFORMATION” -  we  took the creative idea from the summer blockbuster of Transformers coming out.

Mind dump:

  • We are preparing to move to a third service in September.
  • We are in full swing of planting a church in Casa Grande (let me know if you want to help)
  • Attendance was up
  • I dont think the swine flu stopped people from coming to church
  • Second service worship was ‘driving’ – that is my new word for when it is good!
  • Rick Naranjo tore it up on the drums (twitter.com/undersinrickmo)
  • I am pumped that Chad Haymon will be joining us in two weeks as our new Worship Pastor
  • Christ Life Kidz were solidly prepared for any ‘swine flu’ issues…….there was  hand sanitizer everywhere – I even saw the camera guy that had his own bottle…..LOL…except it did not work.
  • Preached both services and knew that it was a God inspired message
  • Excited that Pastor Phil Goldsberry was preaching the house down at Christ Church Nashville. I told him he should have worn his Tap Out Shirt…HAHA……gotta have been at church to know that one.
