Inspiration through Innovation

Disney is known for continually improving the guest experience. What if the local church had that reputation? One of the latest innovations from this experiential genius is the addition of powerful and more intimate settings for guests to interact with movie characters. Interacting directly with the story is hard to beat.

Ponder how you can break your ministry into smaller communities to boost intimacy and strengthen relationships. How is your church reaching out to attract new first time guests? Have you considered a different demographic to draw in?  One church has offered a sermon series titled, ISIS, ISLAM and Jesus. Maybe you want to target retired folks in a new way. It's worth a thought or two to try something new.

The Disney pros are always modifying their rides, adding a competitive aspect or new backgrounds perhaps. What is your church doing to increase the anticipation of its members? What fresh experiences can you provide to keep people engaged?  Another strength of the Disney magic is to enhance the "waiting" experience to provide interactive opportunities in line or surprise elements that delight the crowds. How might your church enhance the areas people might have to wait? Could you do something in the foyer to welcome people and build anticipation and reinforce happiness?
