Drive Conference Notes- Main Session

Some members of our church staff recently attended the Drive Conference, a conference for church and ministry leaders, held at North Point Community Church in Alpharetta, GA. In this and several upcoming posts, I will share some notes from that conference.

Andy Stanley spoke in a main session titled "Rules of Engagement" where he shared some of the ways North Point prepares for weekend worship services:

Ask the Holy Spirit to bless the preparation as well as the moment

A goal is something to be accomplished; a win is something to be experienced

Your template is perfectly designed to get the results you are getting

Get the most out of the limitations (finances, space) you've been given

The Gospel is offensive but nothing leading to the Gospel should be

Don't assume too much knowledge or theology

The more time you give to planning, the more time you have to make things personal

Just doing something different is not strategic
