But, honestly, what's most "stunning" about that news is that Willow paved the way for the model of having a weekend "seeker" service and a midweek "believers" service. Now, it appears, they're combining the two. That's a huge shift. Hope we get to hear/read more about the thought that has gone into that change. tony You knew numbers that I didn’t know, Tim.

It had gone from 8,000+ in attendance during the John Ortberg era to around 3,000 to 3,500 in recent months. I found the news about Willow’s mid-week service quite predictable.

We would mail to many donors as many as 9 times a year and they would give all nine times. I hate to see non profits leave money on the table when people are passionate about a cause and have the money they will give. But they need information to make them passionate - vision!

All the research I used supports the same thing that this article is about. Funny that the people who need support the most aren't making use of the best tool for getting it.
