Yesterday I spent an hour with Dino Rizzo, Eric Swanson and Rick Rusaw talking about churches that serve on our monthly webinar, The Spotlight. It was a great discussion, and it was really neat when they were each taking notes from the others’ stories! If you missed it, don’t fret – you can download the recording and a copy of the notes (in slide format) here.
On April 14, 2010, The Spotlight will feature Larry Osborne of North Coast Church in Vista, CA. Larry is the author of several books, including Sticky Church (Zondervan, 2008) and his latest, Sticky Teams (Zondervan, 2010). The webinar is a one-hour, online presentation that lets participants interact with the presenter in a Q&A format. Got a question for Larry about stickiness in your church? Go ahead and email it to me now -- we’ll try to answer as many questions as possible on Wednesday, April 14 at 3:00 pm Central (convert to my time zone). The webinar is free, but you must register to participate, so register now!
- Sticky Church tells the inspiring story of North Coast Church's phenomenal growth and offers practical tips for launching your own sermon-based small group ministry. Topics include: Why stickiness is so important. Why most of our discipleship models don't work very well. Why small groups always make a church more honest and transparent. What makes groups grow deeper and sticker over time.
- Sticky Teams exposes the hidden roadblocks, structures, and goofy thinking that all too often sabotage the health and harmony of even the best intentioned ministry teams. With practical and seasoned advice, Larry shows what it takes to get a leadership board, ministry team, and an entire congregation headed in the same direction, sticking together, unified and healthy for the long haul.
Just for fun, here’s a short video about Larry’s new book, Sticky Teams.
