Sick as a Dog... But This Made Me Smile

Wow! I woke up with a NASTY cold... Just typing this is tough. But this made me smile. It is from my home town. Might tell you something about me... Our numbers were back a little this week (see the last post) but still missing our summer crowd. When was the last time you heard that. We did all we could do and the service was great. Thanks to all the volunteers for all your hard work!!!

Where do 47 people go???

For those of you that have started a church from scratch I would love to hear from you on this one... This Sunday we had 47 less people than the week before... how does that happen? Sure if you are a mega-church 47 people coming and going is no big deal but when you have less than 200 people 47 is a huge number!

I post this for two reasons. First, if you have had this happen to you know that you are not alone. Sometimes you just can't figure the numbers out. It doesn't mean you have failed the last time out. One week doesn't make a trend.

Second, I would love to hear what you have maybe learned about wild swings like this. What kinds of things should you look at when a wild swing in attendance happens? Leave your comment here or e-mail them to me at brian@canthisbechurch.com
