Before you rely on the church bulletin…

Take thirty seconds and watch this video.

It will make you think twice before you rely on the church bulletin to recruit your nursery workers or drive VBS registration.

    I can’t think of a more perfect illustration of relying on church programs to recruit. Love it Ryan!

    That’s great! I actually replayed it to make sure it wasn’t a trick. Good teaching tool.

    P.S. It was good to see you guys in San Diego!

    Ryan I enjoyed this as well even though I saw the bear easily, but enjoyed the point being made.

    I too made the same kind of point a while back concerning our R.A.S filter (The nerve fibers of the RAS filter incoming sensory information and determine whether it is to be a part of the very tiny trickle of information that is permitted into our precious consciousness. The RAS is one of the brain’s most important action systems for it literally functions as the “doorkeeper” to our consciousness). Once something becomes part of that filter, we see it all the time. Until something is allowed to be part of that filter we will miss it.

    thanks I am filing the video clip to use in the future.
