The turning up when nothing is on is a step of commitment

Events draw people in. 


They provide the perfect reason to invite a newbie.


It is true for church and youth group.


We love an evangelistic excuse.


Unfortunately, “it’s Sunday” isn’t a particular significant occasion.


They’re ordinary.


Having a new person turn up on a spectacular occasion is excellent. Anyone darkening the church door for the first time is great.


Having them turn up again is even better. 


But, having them turn up when nothing significant is on is game-changing. For, now, the new person is attending because of something deeper than the special event. This is an important leap of commitment.
