Sunday night was a great night at the 20-somethings service over at Rock Harbor. A great break from the normal routine for us – went over there with the director of venues, the membership pastor and the singles pastor from Saddleback. Here’s few of my thoughts and learnings for the night:
- Announcement guys have a tough job at any church, even a cool one
- Not everyone has to be trendy and cool to participate
- It makes for a great look and feel when someone is intentional and passionate about look and feel (think trendy meets industrial with a splash of vintage)
- You don’t have to be young to connect with the next generation
- Sabatticals are a good thing for pastors
- The cross is central and important in this church
- Waiting in line to go into the sanctuary builds anticipation
- People sitting on the floor since the seats were all taken is a good problem
- Pop rock isn’t the only style of worship
- Playful banter between worship leaders and speakers works in any setting
- 20-somethings like to sing, too … not just observe
