All-Church Meeting 1/25 - a podcast by Nils Swanson

Who Are We?

We understand how we fit together as a body
John Doty: Look at what you’ve got
Everyone is here for a reason
We are the results of outreach
We’re primarily a church of young adults who know God
What kind of people do we attract? What kind of people should we attract? How do we attract these people?
undergrads
graduate students
young families
young couples
young single people
middle-aged families
older families/couples
other?
What are we good at? Let us stick to it!
Do we have a “Dare me to worship” attitude
Do we come to church only for ourselves?

What Can We Do? What questions we should ask?
How do we make Cornerstone a place that people want to call their home church?
This concern keeps coming up
How do we balance attacking v not approaching newcomers
How do we decide who does and doesn’t want to remain anonymous?
Spread ourselves throughout to church to give newcomers more opportunities to intermingle with us
Come to church with a passion for all things happening at the church...personal excitement
What other types of worship could we try?
How do we follow up on meeting people?
Change our mission statement: We are a welcoming church full of friendships. We are here to strengthen our relationship with God and knowledge of the Bible.
Give each other feedback
It is crucial that you let us know what isn’t working for you. A song, an attitude, something that is missing...
Comments for music team: Constructive criticism
Prayer before worship...Don’t rush in
Connect Bible verses to songs
Which key result areas should we focus on, if any? How and why?
