Who ever said that didn’t read Craig Groeschel’s Blog today.

Here is the story from Swerve- Craig Groeschel

“This week, a pretty cool thing happened over at the Stuff Christians Like blog. On Monday, Jon Acuff shared an idea with his readers: let’s raise $30,000 to build a kindergarten in Vietnam. He hoped to reach that goal by December 31. Instead, it happened in 18 hours. From 5:00am to 11:00pm, readers donated the full $30,000 so that 240 kids in Vietnam could go to school. Building on the momentum from the overwhelming response, they’ve set their sights on building a second kindergarten by his initial goal of December 31.

It’s great to see social media being used effectively to engage people in causes, particularly financially. There’s a lot we can learn from this.”

It is great to hear what God is doing through Social Media!

Shaun Lovejoy just blogged about how he feels 3 short church services on Sunday are better than 2 long services…

Post from Blog:

“The three Sunday morning service thing has been AWESOME! We haven’t lost any momentum at all! If you’re a pastor or church planter out there considering Saturday night or Sunday night services, I strongly suggest that you first consider experimenting with three 55 minute Sunday morning services at 9:00; 10:15; and 11:30. No, you can’t sing or preach forever in a 55 minute service, but frankly, no one wants you to. Get over yourselves and do what;s best for the church and the people and DISCONNECTED PEOPLE in your community! These are three GREAT “Invite” times for people, and no service is what I call a “Ghost town” service.”
