Marketing Ministry @ Arise

Labels:

I've been reading up today on Marketing Ministry because this is something we've been working on at Arise. We put together a team of talented folks with strengths in art, photography, and digital media. Right now we've been playing around with different ideas, and doing small projects to get us started.

Here is something simple that I created:

Pentecost: A Global Impact

Labels:

This was a study I did for Pentecost Sunday 2009 at Arise. This presentation opened up the opportunity for people to ask questions and share thoughts and experiences. It was wonderful!


What is not included is a short video that was shared about translating the Bible in one's own language from Wycliffe Bible Translators that was shown on Sunday morning.

History of Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

Labels:

As pastor of a new church start, I found it necessary to take time very early on in the life of the church to establish our identity. One of my Sunday morning teachings was on our denomination, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). This is not a super in-depth historical presentation, but it's a simple overview of who we are: past, present, and future. Taking time to share this with the folks was beneficial, especially for those that have been in the denomination for a while, and don't know much about the history. And, even for folks that are joining the new church that come from a different Christian tradition, or no religious background what so ever. It was worth the time to do this. Content on the powerpoint is from disciples.org & obrahispana.org.
