Exceed Their Expectations This Easter!

Many are undoubtedly gearing up for another Easter weekend. For most churches, this means a large influx of the "Two-A-Years". You know, the people that come to church two times a year: Christmas and Easter.

Easter is one of those two times a year that a very large chunk of our population attends a church service out of obligation (perceived), motivation (with friend or visiting relative) or tradition (annual check mark on the to-do list).

We have these two free-passes to get a huge amount of people from our communities in our doors with very little effort. It's one of those very, very rare times when they come to church, so we better make the most of their experience by exceeding their expectations.

We must - it is not an option - put our very best into making the most powerful and welcoming first impression. In a very real way, these two opportunities provide us with a potential entrance ramp into the freeways of their lives. We must not be stalled on the access road or we'll miss our chance.

Easter Resource List 2005!! In order to help your church find just the right background, video clip, illustration, software, hardware or service, I've asked partners of Anthony Coppedge Consulting to provide pictures and descriptions of the things they think will help your church meet the rigorous production season of Easter.

You can see the entire list online by visiting Anthony Coppedge website. Or, you can right-click on the link below, choose "save target as" and print out the list from the downloadable PDF file.
