Christian Technology: Rentmychurch.com New Marketing Resource for Churches
DALLAS, April 28 /Christian Newswire/ -- RentMyChurch.com , Inc. announces the launch of its new website that is an online marketing tool that bridges the gap between churches and those looking for a church to rent for special events, conferences, weddings and other activities.
"RentMyChurch.com is a resource that allows users direct access to thousands of churches nationwide." said Stephanie Gardner, Founder/CEO. In recent months, RentMyChurch.com pre-marketed by exhibiting at events such as the Dallas Bridal Show, Synergize 2 Pastors & Leaders Conference and Catersource/Event Solutions Conference. "Our focus during the design of the site was to provide user-friendly navigation that would appeal to brides and event professionals across the U.S."
RentMyChurch.com is now readily available to create an impact in the Christian market that has long gone unnoticed. Churches and/or chapels have the option of choosing from three different monthly pricing packages ( www.rentmychurch.com/register-your-church) to begin the process of allowing RentMyChurch.com to market their facility 365/24/7. |

The 5 Deadly Sins of Worship Services
by Doug Lawrence
Have every member of your platform team read this—today! Please!
O.K., I've got my "mad" on today. Just indulge me, dear friends. Here's my personal list of the 5 Deadly Sins in Worship. I bet you could write your own list. Do it, and send it to me!
State the obvious
It's oh so tempting to tell a really attractive person that YOU think they're attractive—as though they hadn't noticed it themselves. Complimenting, after all, is just a form of showing affection and an expression of affirmation—nothing wrong with that. But, it can also be used to manipulate and imply, in some kind of naive way, that you have control over that person—that your impression "seals" their identity.
If I tell you how handsome or beautiful you are, I am calibrating (I believe) the standard by which you will be perceived by others. I feel powerful and, maybe, handsome myself—by proximity.
In countless church services, I have seen the same principle apply. If a pastor says, "What a beautiful solo," he/she gets a piece of the action. Their opinion of it elevates them inappropriately, not the musical expression of faith.
I once (horrors) closed out a service by saying, "Wasn't that an incredible call to action!" The congregation jumped to their feet to affirm the message, its delivery, and the messenger who brought it. Good, right? No, it was not a good idea and it meant a long, soulful talk with our fearless leader. He said that I had completely obliterated the application part of his sermon. By affirming the message, the messenger, and the nobleness of his sermon, I had undone the challenge he was giving. I stated the obvious. Bad idea!
