This Sunday, we continue with the 2nd week of our "God On The Billboards" series that is by far the most popular series we do at Harvest. Last week the 2nd service was on the verge of getting crowded.....
Remember folks: New people feel a place is "too crowded" when it is around 80% full. Statistics show that no matter how good it is, they usually don't come back, as they mentally dont want to fight the crowd.
As evidence, a lady I talked to last week who has never been but wanted to come, asked me "which service has the LEAST people?" She doesn't like crowds. Preachers love crowds. The average person doesnt.
All that said......
PLEASE, CONSIDER SERVING HER AND PEOPLE LIKE HER BY COMMITTING TO THE 8:30 SERVICE!
As I wil talk about at our CORE meeting Sunday night, we have about 15 more months in the RAVE. We need to create more seats for people to attend at the time most Newcomers will try us out, 10am! Just think: You COULD be making room for a 'seeker', like the lady I talked to, to come to God! No witnessing to....no even having to invite....just simply helping give them "space".
Love you guys and please PRAY for Sunday!

Good point Becca, and we will have to cross that bridge again and again. She is not a Christian.....I just found it interesting.

but, if everyone comes to the 8:30 service, it will be crowded and she won't be comfortable there! :)
