Here’s the "box score" for this past weekend at Granger Community Church.

Music: "All Things New" by Steven Curtis Chapman

Nume_1Message: "Nu Strategies for Growth: God’s Gym" — Rob Wegner, Pastor of Life Development, opened this new series by highlighting the transformation we go through as new believers, but also talked about our responsibility to continue to "work out" our salvation (Phil. 2:12-13). Rob included an overview of some of the spiritual habits we can use as we train ourselves to be more like Christ while remaining uniquely ourselves as God designed us.

Service Highlights: Rob talked about the difference between training and trying. To illustrate the importance of training, one of our volunteers jumped his motorcycle onto the platform in the middle of the message. It was pretty impressive–something I certainly wouldn’t recommend trying at home. Rob used that to make the point that we need to train by arranging our lives around those activities that enable us to do what we can’t now do by direct effort.

Stats: 4,668 total attendance (3,602 adults + 1,066 kids); 9.1% increase from the same weekend last year

Percentage of weekend attendance by service:

  1. Sun 10:15 am = 28%
  2. Sat 5:30 pm = 22%
  3. Sun 11:45 am = 17%
  4. Sun 8:45 am = 17%

Final Notes: Each week we offer some next steps out of our weekend services to encourage people to continue to process what they are experiencing in the services. We create both a Bible reading plan and a discussion guide for people to use in their daily time with God and in their group conversations. You can find samples of those resources on GCCwired.com.
