Idea Starter: Bring Your Church to the Gym

Reach out to those who work out by partnering with a local gym to stream live video of your Sunday services on one of the gym’s TVs every Sunday morning. You could also go to the gym yourself by alternating weeks with another pastor to give your sermon in person to those exercising.
