Try This: Hold an Easter Egg Race

The men’s ministry of Whitton Baptist Church in Suffolk, U.K., hosted the Great Egg Race, challenging men—and their friends—to build a self-propelled vehicle to transport an egg the furthest distance possible. Teams of three to four used provided materials—drinking straws, pieces of wood, tin foil, rubber bands, etc.—to construct and then race the vehicle down a ramp. The 100-attendee church captured the competition in a YouTube video and will use it to garner excitement for another race.

Why the Ideal Church Size Debate Is Unhelpful

Church size alone is not an indication of health or unhealth.

Leading With Kindness

Kindness isn’t weakness, it’s the expression of strength from someone who has something to offer. Kindness is not automatic, it’s a gift that you must choose to give.

Evangelism and the Privatization of Faith

Make friends, in your own way, and avoid isolating yourself—be open to show and share the love of God.
