The Church Going Viral

Kevin Hendricks over at Church Marketing Sucks has a great article about the recent flash mob video from Second Baptist Church, “Dance Your Shoes Off”. He makes some great points what a viral video like this which involved so many people can do, including:

“Such a public event does have the benefit of multiple perspectives. It’s not limited to the official video. Loads of people watching the event can be seen snapping pictures and taking cell phone video. These alternate perspectives show up online, spreading the core idea even further.”

The other day the folks over at Church Marketing Sucks asked their readers to show them their Easter. The idea was to post pictures that demonstrate what your church did for Easter. These could be pictures of marketing materials or pictures at Easter events. It’s a pretty cool idea.

Stolen church equipment = outreach opportunity?

Church Marketing Sucks posted an interesting story about Kinetic Church in Charlotte, NC. Kinetic church holds its Sunday service in a movie theater and so they keep all their gear in a trailer. About a month ago theives stole the trailer. In response, Kinetic Church launched an outreach effort with donated billboard space and a coordinated online outreach effort. They even put this video on YouTube reaching out to the person or people who stole the trailer offering them forgiveness and asking for the opportunity to take them out to dinner.
