Get Your Strategy On
Question: I’m a pastor in Missouri who has just added two new staff members. I was wondering if you could tell me 4 or 5 things that you guys discuss as you debrief Sunday’s service.
Answer: Perry leads us through an initial debrief of his message and the arts programming at the Anderson campus immediately after [...]
Yesterday, Louie Giglio taught at our services…only he really didn’t. We used a video of a message he taught last fall. It was powerful. (Just in case you’re wondering, I’m convinced video teaching works when the video teaching is good.)
I know. I’m fortunate. I get to experience world-class teaching every weekend here at NewSpring. And, [...]
Today, Perry taught one of the best messages I’ve ever heard about reaching today’s culture. He unpacked Acts 17 and talked about how Paul communicated with those outside the faith. Here were some of the lines that caught my attention:
“If a Christian can only listen to Christian music, I wouldn’t listen to music because most [...]
Today, Perry addressed the question: “Is it OK for Christians to drink alcohol?” His answer may surprise you, and it will probably make a lot of you mad. I recommend you watch the entire message when it’s available on www.NewSpring.cc later this week. Here are some of the lines from his message that grabbed my [...]
Here are some of the lines from Perry’s message last Sunday that caught my attention:
“We’ve made knowing God’s will way too difficult.”

“No one is praying ‘give me more to do.’ [...]
We’re looking for fun, college students (even if you don’t attend Clemson) that are sold out to the vision of NewSpring and want the opportunity to see what ministry life is really like. The deadline to turn in an application for our Fall internship program has been extended to next Wednesday, August 6. Applications should [...]

Here’s the deal. My team and I are getting bombarded with questions about multi-site. We wish we could respond to all of them immediately, but, truthfully, we’re still trying to figure it out as we go. So, here’s where you can start:
Use the “Search” function. My good friends at Updatable.cc designed a search function for [...]
Here were some of the lines that caught my attention yesterday from Perry’s message in the You Asked for It series:
“I’d rather lose my wallet in a knife fight than have to go to the DMV to get a new license.”
“Can a Christian lose their salvation? Heck no!”
“We don’t fall into sin. Sin is a [...]
Yesterday, I received a message from Matt, a pastor in Oklahoma City. Matt’s mom (we’ll call her “Mom”) lives in Greenville, South Carolina. As you know, NewSpring opened up a campus in Greenville last Sunday.
Matt explained that Mom is older than him. (Don’t think about that too long.) He even mentioned Mom’s specific age in [...]
