Easter is around the corner (46 days away to be exact)!

This is the #1 day of the year to reach people in your community.

I know lots of churches are going to going to be trying different outreach means to see their community attend of their Easter services.

So I thought I’d share the 7 deadly sins of Easter outreach…

1. Pride – Don’t simply expect people to show up to your church on Easter. Humble yourself enough to use every means available to invite them.

2. Lust – Don’t simply desire to make people just another “butt in the seat”. These are people with hurts, hangups, problems, and addictions. Love them by sharing an Easter message that connects with them.

3. Envy – Don’t be upset because another church is doing something you can’t do. Focus on what you can do with excellence. Celebrate that we’re all on the same team and all seeking to reach people for the kingdom!

4. Greed – When a church isn’t honest about who they can and cannot reach, they get greedy. They think they’re going to reach everyone and all they end up doing is wasting money.

5. Gluttony – Focus on who you’re most equipped to reach and those most likely to stay. If you do, your church will be healthier and

6. Anger – Don’t be mad at people for being sinners. They don’t know any better. Instead, share a message of hope for sinners. That’s the beauty of the Gospel.

7. Sloth – Don’t be lazy! The time to get up and start planning to reach your community is now! Don’t delay one more second!

I’m still in mourning over the Patriots loss in the Superbowl.

What can I say? I’m from Boston

However, I did learn something about outreach from Madonna of all people during the halftime show.

I believe this can help you as you prepare for your “Superbowl ” of Sundays, Easter!

1. Don’t miss the biggest opportunity of the year

Madonna was performing for one third of the population of America and she brought the best performance of her career.

Easter is the biggest Sunday of the year. make sure that it’s the best music, preaching and overall service you have this year.

2. Don’t miss the best promotion of the year

Madonna did the halftime show because it was a promotion for her new album.

Easter is the time when the most people in your community are open to the Gospel and attending church.

So use this promotional window to let people know about your church.

Once they attend, you’ll give them a clear Gospel presentation and they’ll respond by God’s grace.

3. Do everything with excellence

Say what you want about Madonna’s music, she did one of the best halftime shows since U2 in 2001.

So create great direct mail pieces.

Put together quality Facebook ads.

Pick the right key words on Google.

Mobilize your congregation.

The result will be the best Easter services and the most lives changes that we have ever seen.

That’s what Outreach Ninja is all about.

Helping you reach maximum people in your community so you can seize this important moment in your church’s history.
