Free Catalyst Ticket

Today we've been pitching jobs, talking about church on the cheap and now we're giving away a free ticket. Sense a theme?

Here's the deal: The kind folks at AspireOne ended up with an extra ticket to the Catalyst Conference (including the Labs) which starts on Wednesday, Oct. 8, 2008 and runs through Friday. Yeah, as in two days from now.

We want to get this ticket in the hands of someone who can use it. There's no transportation or hotels or anything else included, so it might work best for someone already in the Atlanta area.

If you want the ticket, be the first person to post a comment to this post and it's yours. (Time is short, so we're keeping this simple. Do us a favor and keep it simple for us as well: Only post a comment if you can actually use the ticket. The ticket will be available at will call for the winner. Thanks!)

Update: Four minutes and we have a winner. Congrats, Brad Singleton.

Coming Soon in the Events Lab

Last time we let you know the latest in the Events Lab, it was for August and September. But now it's time to take a look at October, the biggest event month of the year around these parts. And November's not exactly boring. So round up your extra gas money and all your friends for a road trip. Here's what's just around the corner:

October
6-7...Sticky Church Conference - Myth: Attracting more people will help your church grow. Fact: Churches will grow when people stick.
8-10...Catalyst Conference - The Catalyst Conference is the largest gathering of young leaders in the country. It's an experience where you can find yourself fully immersed in learning, worship and creativity.
13...C3 on the Road - Ed Young shares the life-lessons and leadership principles needed to tackle the real issues facing leaders today. It's a one day, crash course in leadership that is packed with more than just theory and philosophy; it provides the practical tools you need to take your leadership to the next level.
14-15...Reveal Conference - This is an all-new, two-day event for church leaders presented by Willow Creek. The big bonus is that Reveal research has helped identify a number of churches--most never before on the national radar--that rank high across multiple areas of spiritual growth.
20-23...Internet Ministry Conference - Our own Brad Abare and Michael Buckingham will be speaking at this conference that takes a look at how to effectively harness the power of the Internet for your ministry.

MinistryCOM 2008 in Oklahoma City

MinistryCOM 2008For the past several months I've been looking forward to being at MinistryCOM in Oklahoma City on September 18-19. With less than three weeks to go, the anticipation continues to build. Earlier this month I met with producer extraordinaire Mark Bennardo who is putting together quite the experience. I also spoke earlier this week with MinistryCOM maestro Terrell Sanders (the brain behind the whole event), and he is equally enthused about the great things in store. My prayer for this year's event has been that church communicators in attendance will be ministered to. A little less "com" and a lot more "ministry." Pray with me, will you?

Unfortunately, because of some significant recent developments at Foursquare (one of my day jobs), I have had to excuse myself from emceeing this year's MinistryCOM. What a bummer! I'll be in New York during MinistryCOM for some just-scheduled strategic meetings with Foursquare leadership.

If you haven't registered, there is still time. It's no secret the economy has had an affect on many travel budgets so no doubt you're hit by it too. The good news is that Oklahoma City is within a long day's drive of just about anywhere in the U.S. So grab a few friends, load up the iPod, and make it a road trip.

The line-up of workshops and presenters this year is going to be great!

Internet Ministry Conference - Register Soon!

Ever get frustrated that you're only metafriends with us at Church Marketing Sucks? The Internet Ministry Conference is the perfect place to fix that. If you hadn't heard, Brad Abare and Michael Buckingham will be tag-teaming two workshops.

A little more about the IMC:

You’ve got a web site. You would even call it an online ministry. But what kind of influence are you having in your online world? People are visiting your site and some might be coming back day after day or week after week. But are you really making an impact on people? Whether its online evangelism or online discipleship, we will focus on the importance of using your web presence to make an impact toward accomplishing the Great Commission online.

And don't miss the two sessions--Don't Suck Online and You've Got Personality--from Brad and Michael.

Fresh From the Events Lab

We just updated the Events Lab, and if you've got some frequent flyer miles you're looking to kill, we have some suggestions for you. Here's what's on the slate for the next couple months' upcoming events:

August
7-8... Willow 2008 Leadership Summit - Lead where you are. Willow's strategy--change a leader, change a church, change a church, change a community and eventually the world! The commitment to that strategy compelled them to create The Leadership Summit 13 years ago.
14-16... Echo Church Media Conference - Our personal favorite will be speaking here--Brad Abare. It's a conference for church leaders who love using media, technology and the Internet to be more effective in telling God's story.

CMS at HOW Design

by Michael Buckingham, Guest Blogger

When I returned home from the 2008 HOW Design Conference the question was "How did it go?"

In a word: WOW.

You know those times when the thing before you is bigger than yourself, when the results are so incredible that everyone can't help but give glory to God? Monday night at the Design Evangelist session was just that type of moment. To see just how big our God is, a little bit of background needs to be given.

MinistryCOM Early Bird Deadline

If you've been keeping a watchful eye on our Events Lab, or if you've been reading us the last three years, you might know a little about MinistryCOM. For everyone else, MinistryCOM is the only national conference dedicated to church communications professionals. So that's probably a lot of you.

And our very own Brad Abare will be the emcee for the event, so that can add a little fuel to your desire to grab a spot September 18th and 19th in Oklahoma City.

You'll also see Jon Acuff of Stuff Christians Like, Mike Foster of XXX Church , Scott Hodge of Orchard Valley Community Church and Dawn Nicole Baldwin of Aspire!One. And some totally sweet workshops will be available too, including the return of Church Marketing Lab Live with Michael Buckingham.

Come hang out with us September 18-19, and be sure to register this week as the earlybird deadline ends May 31st!

HOW Design Conference: Design Evangelist

by Michael Buckingham, Guest Blogger

I'm really honored and looking forward to speaking at the HOW Design Conference next week. For those of you who will be there, I thought I'd give you a sneak peak at the CFCC session and for those of you not going, maybe it'll give you a reason to attend.

We'll start by looking at the landscape of church marketing, some of our mis-turns, some of the embarrassing excuses and some of the highlights of church marketing. I'll start off with one of the funniest, if misguided, church signs I've seen and offer something the corporate world could actually learn from the church marketing world.

Q in New York

2008_04_05_Q.jpgI'm heading to New York this week for the Q conference. Last year was the debut of this event and I really enjoyed it so I'm going again. This year looks to be equally engaging. Huge plus that it's in NYC--one of my favorite U.S. cities. I get to hang out with my younger brother who just moved there too.

Awaken 2008 This Week

I'm looking forward to popping in and out of the Awaken conference this week in Pasadena, Calif. Aside from it taking place in my backyard (10 miles from my office), it will be nice to meet up with old and new friends. If you're planning to attend and want to connect, drop an e-mail to me at brad [at] cfcclabs [dot] org. It's always interesting to watch Mosaic put on events because they're some of the most genuinely gifted people on the planet, but they'll tell you themselves that they're a little event-challenged. They're actually a little 'church'-challenged too but that's what makes Mosaic so great. I love it!

HOW Church Marketing Sucks

How does church marketing suck? Well, we count the ways on this blog nearly every day. But one way church marketing can suck a little less is by learning from the communications professionals behind How magazine (who included us in an article back in December) and the How Design Conference. The Center for Church Communication--our nonprofit parent--is partnering with HOW.

So what does that mean for you?

  • A special CFCC workshop at the upcoming HOW Design Conference in Boston from May 18-21.
  • You can save up to $120 on your HOW registration.
  • A chance to win a free full-conference pass to the HOW Design Conference.

Check out the CFCC site for more details.

Association vs. Action

Over the last couple of years I was a part of the planning team for a Foursquare sponsored event in Anaheim, Calif., this past December. It was a gathering of 3,500 students coming around three ambitious causes: fighting poverty, caring for orphans and ending modern day slavery. In spite of lower-than-hoped-for attendance, it was a really great event with many God-moments.

I know I’m a little slow sometimes, but it is now hitting me why events with students and young adults are so different these days than they were ten years ago. Gone are the days when event-goers were content with being captivated by the energy of crowds and connected with like-minded peers. It used to be that you could put on an event with awesome experiences (technical) and spectacular content (spiritual) and it would be a winning combination with little competition. These days, events are a dime-a-dozen with often little distinction between purpose, people or participants.

CFCC MeetUps Anyone?

Are you a designer who likes to meet other awesome designers? Or maybe you're an Average Joe with a voracious appetite for organizing large groups of people to meet together? Well over in the Church Marketing Lab, there's a discussion rolling about designers meeting up to--well, do what designers do. Probably sharing samples, playing layer tennis, discussing horn-rimmed glasses and drinking macchiatos.

Whatever they might do, it's a great way to meet some phenomenal designer that live near you.

Awaken 2008

The Mosaic Alliance is hosting the Awaken 2008 conference this April 1-3 in Pasadena, Calif. They invited a handful of people to do some guest blogging leading up to the event, and yours truly pulled out a personal favorite that is now live on the Awaken blog.

The CFCC community--that's you--can take advantage of a 15% conference discount by using the code "awaken2008cms" when registering online or simply mentioning this blog if you register over the phone.

Foursquare NextGen Summit

Foursquare NextGen SummitI'm here in Anaheim, Calif. through January 1 for the Foursquare NextGen Summit. It's an event with 3,500 students centered around three causes: poverty, orphans and human trafficking. My role at Foursquare made way for me to be a part of the core planning team over the past 18 months. What a ride it has been! I am also doing a workshop titled "Church Marketing Goodness." It will be a different audience than I am used to--students and youth leaders--so I am looking forward to seeing how people respond. I am going to use some stuff that I first tried out at the MinistryCOM conference this past September, but tweak it to be more personal than professional. The foundation will be Matthew 5 and Matthew 10.

If you live in the SoCal area, the evenings are free so please drop in and check it out!

Catalyst: The Feelings

Here it is, the good, bad and ugly about the Catalyst conference itself. I think churches can take plenty away from this in how the conference was executed. Most of these rules will apply to your churches and services as well.

Excellence + Surprises + Innovation = Good.
Every transition was nailed. Every unexpected turn was welcomed. There was so much positive energy in the place, and momentum stayed throughout the event because everything was nailed. There were no awkward, deflating pauses. In your church, keep it both interesting and well-executed. Change things up a little, do new stuff--just make sure everyone knows what to do and when.

Catalyst: The Facts

This year's Catalyst conference was the biggest ever. Over 11,000 church leaders gathered to hear from the likes of Rick Warren, Francis Chan, Andy Stanley and more. I didn't think I'd go on with session by session notes -- partially because I didn't take them, and partially because you can get them elsewhere (links at the bottom).

If you've never been to Catalyst, it's not just a conference. It's an experience. I've never heard a group of speakers as phenomenal as the men I heard last week. The conference is pulled off with excellence without fail. I did take away some interesting tidbits from the speakers that translate into the world of church marketing:

Free Catalyst Tickets

I realize it's last minute, but our friends over at Aspire!One have two tickets to next week's Catalyst conference that they're giving away to the CFCC community. You'll have to cover your own transportation, meals, lodging, blah, blah, blah. The tickets are good for Thursday and Friday only (not the labs on Wednesday).

If you want them, drop us an e-mail for why you think they should be yours and we'll have them FedEx'd out for Monday delivery. There are no tricks or gimmicks to getting these--it's too late for that!

Update: The two Catalyst tickets have found their homes so you can stop e-mailing. However, it appears that Jesse the Catalyst intern has some "fire-sale discount [tickets]" so call him at 678-225-3553 if you're still looking to go.

And for anyone else who is already going to Catalyst, there are several CFCC friends who will be there so say hey to someone--especially those closet readers of CMS. Josh and I will be there too. See you next week!

MinistryCOM 2007 Recap

by Michael Buckingham, Guest Blogger

I'm just getting back into the swing of things after a great time at the MinistryCOM conference in Nashville last week. I talk often about setting the bar as communicators, and what a great time of hanging out with 400+ people who are pressing forward to set the bar, and many that are blowing it away!

Terry Storch of LifeChurch.tv kicked off the conference on Thursday morning ... this guy doesn't just get technology he understands how to use technology to reach people. He made a simple point, but one with a lot of impact: Our focus as a church used to be all about service times, Sunday morning was where it was all at. But that simply doesn't apply anymore--we are a 24/7 culture now.

Internet Ministry Conference... You Going?

Last week I mentioned that I will be in Nashville on September 13-14 for MinistryCOM 2007. The week following, on September 19-22, I will be at the Internet Ministry Conference presented by Gospel Communications in Grand Rapids, Mich. It looks like they have a pretty sweet line-up of speakers, so I'm looking forward to learning with everybody. And with registration being closed out already for the event, if you didn't sign-up, you'll have to wait for next year.

As always, if you'll be in Grand Rapids later this month, be sure to say hello!

Buzz Film Fest

The Buzz Conference wrapped up in Washington, D.C., a few weeks back and the results of their film festival are now online. You can watch the four top church films to see some examples of cool church videos.

For those who didn't get to attend (like me), you can also download audio or watch video from the main session speakers (folks like Mark Batterson, Tim Stevens and Craig Groeschel).

Q Conference Recap

Just finished a whirlwind week. It began with the National New Church Conference in Orlando and then ended, as it did for many others, with Q in Atlanta (Q, whew?). Q was packed with great thinkers and presenters, formatted to flow fairly quickly. Most presenters had 18 minutes to make their point while the clock was counting down in front of them and the audience. In an effort to keep our filter here to church marketing/communication, I'll let the rest of the blog world, including some recaps from Scott Hodge, fulfill your fodder-looking fancy.

As for the subject of marketing and communicating the church, allow me to highlight some takeaways:

Notes on the National New Church Conference

I had a great time in Orlando on Tuesday of last week at the National New Church Conference. I flew from Los Angeles to Orlando and arrived late Monday night. I woke up six hours later and finished off the creative communications session that Mark Batterson began the day before. It was a jam-packed two hours and I loved it! Mark had four hours on Monday and got to share his wisdom, wit and work from National Community Church, so when I spoke on Tuesday I got to tell everybody that just because it works for Batterson doesn't mean it works for you.

Here's an outline of what I covered:

Over in the Church Marketing Lab this week, terrell_sanders has an announcement. He's looking for church videos to showcase at MinistryCOM 2007. Don't know what MinistryCOM is? It's a conference that we here at CMS love. Check it out.

Head over to the discussion and consider submitting your videos.

Origins, Mosaic Leadership Experience

I realize it's a little late to the game on this, but for anyone in the southern California area (or those with private planes), on May 1-3 in Pasadena, Calif., the annual Origins event is taking place. It's put on by Erwin McManus and his Mosaic collaborators. For those unfamiliar with Origins, it's kind of a non-event event. In typical McManus McFashion, they do a great job at doing unique things over and over again. I shot over some interview questions to Erwin (via his staff) and received the following responses.

What's the Origins Project all about--will it help my church's communication/marketing to not suck?
The Origins Project is about helping church leaders focus on the doing the right things--focusing on risk, mission, relationships, experimentation and creativity. The greatest marketing strategy is to create a community in which people experience authentic life transformation. Through their relationships, the transformed cannot wait to connect others as well.

Church Marketing Lab LIVE!

by Michael Buckingham, Guest Blogger

Just received some exciting news from the folks at MinistryCOM, I will be hosting the first ever Church Marketing Lab LIVE! at the conference in Nashville, Tenn. Sept. 13-14. It's a chance to put some flesh on the Church Marketing Lab.

Church Marketing Lab LIVE! is an interactive forum/workshop that allows attendees to bring in current and past marketing communications for critique and comment by both a panel of some of the Church Marketing Lab's brightest and encourage a group discussion with the purpose of bettering the communication piece. Church Marketing Lab LIVE! will give attendees something to implement immediately upon returning from MinistryCOM.

I'm hoping this will be a great time of extending the lab into face to face conversation and dig a bit deeper into some of your marketing communications. As we've not done this with the lab before, I'd love to get your input and thoughts on the event.

Growing, Buzzing Churches: Save $70

I'm not quite sure when I first drank of it, but the Mark Batterson Kool-Aid is still having an affect on me. I met Mark in the flesh at last year's Buzz Conference when I had the privilege of being one of the presenters. We've crossed paths a few times over the last year and I've also been a big fan of his blog for a while. If you didn't see his Gut Check For Growing Churches post today, you're missing out. Mark oozes fresh wisdom.

Lest the Kool-Aid loosen its grip, you also need to know about the second annual Buzz Conference coming this June 28-29 in Washington, D.C. With LifeChurch.tv's Craig Groeschel, Simply Strategic boys Tim Stevens and Tony Morgan, and of course Mark, you can't go wrong.

Juliet Main (one of the real brains behind the NCC operation) dropped me an e-mail yesterday and let me know that they're offering the CFCC community a special reduced registration price of just $119. That's $70 off the regular rate. But it only lasts for two weeks. To get it, just drop an e-mail with the subject line "Buzz CFCC" to Juliet [at] theaterchurch [dot] com. This deal is only available to the CFCC community. That means you!

Can't wait until June to hear Mark live? Join me at this year's National New Church Conference where Mark and I will be tag-teaming a pre-conference track about creative communications.

Q Conference

01_30_2007Q.jpgImmediately following my time at the National New Church Conference in Orlando this April, I'll be heading up to Atlanta for the Q Conference. If you haven't heard, Q is being organized by some of the brains behind the Catalyst conference. The event is a private gathering for thought leaders in the church to become informed and exposed to future-culture. "It's a space where select leaders can create, dialogue, collaborate, innovate, serve and ideate around the important topics shaping the church's future role in culture."

This is year one for Q so I am interested to see how it goes. Registration isn't open to everyone; I had to fill out a request form and wait for an invitation before they allowed me to register. The event is somewhat modeled after TED, a high-end event that fosters the same future thinking for mainstream technology, entertainment and design innovators.

I love this kind of think-tank stuff, especially when ideas turn into action that result in an expanding kingdom of God.

National New Church Conference

01_27_2007NNCC.jpgIn April I will be tag-teaming with the one and only Mark Batterson for a pre-conference session at the National New Church Conference in Orlando, Fla. The pre-conference track is about creative communications in the church.

In addition, I will be tag-teaming a workshop on Tuesday with creative guru Drew Goodmanson tentatively titled "Get the Word Out! What Every Church Planter Needs to Know About Communication."

If you're a church planter, I'd encourage you to get to Orlando April 23-26, 2007. The conference is loaded with great topics and communicators who want to help. If you know of church planters who should be there, send them the details and a little cash to help cover their way!

NRB's Reach 2007 Conference

Our very own Brad Abare will be speaking at the NRB's 2007 Reach Conference next month in Orlando, Fla. The conference is February 17-19 and Brad will be headlining the "The Aren't Getting It" workshop, hosted by Brad Hill on Sunday:

Sometimes the greatest hurdle to true online ministry isn't budget--it's simple buy-in from senior leadership. Having no web presence (or a bad one) can do more harm than you might realize. Designed for the people who "get it," this session will help you formulate the most compelling arguments possible for digital ministry in your church/organization.

MinistryCom 2006 Recap

by Elizabeth Anchondo, Guest Blogger

"Definitely a home run!" sums up the overall reaction of attendees at this past week's MinistryCom Conference in Phoenix. The second annual conference hosted speakers from all over the globe who were brought together to share insight into the increasingly complex world of communication. Our very own Brad Abare spoke at the conference giving a workshop entitled "Return to Sender". We also hosted the first ever CFCC Get Together, featuring a few folks from the Church Marketing Lab talking it up with Brad over lunch.

So if you didn't make it out to Phoenix, we've done the next best thing for you: compile a list of links to check out blog postings about this past week's MinistryCom conference. And if you did make it out, relive the memories by posting your thoughts.

From what we've read so far, it was a huge success and has made an impact in so many lives. Read on and feel free to jump into the conversations.
