Knowing Jesus

As part the part of the creative team that handles publicity and technology I am usually looking for creative ways to publicize new sermon series. Back in August Churchnerd had a post titled Does God know my name? Graphic which at the time seemed like a cool idea so I do as every Bloglines user does and I checkmarked the Keep as New box. Well a few weeks later as we’re planning we decide we are doing our current series “Knowing Jesus” it comes back to me about this graphic so I head back to the computer pull the graphic and start planning. We gather again the next week I throw out the idea and the ball begins rolling and it ended up being pretty cool. I’ll show you through the name tag craze:

  1. Each weeks title is a different name of Jesus: Jesus the Messiah, Jesus the Teacher, the Healer, the Tempted, and the Redeemer
  2. The weekend before the series starts everyone at church gets tagged (it’s pretty cool to see 1300 people all wearing nametags). At the end of each service the announcement is made and everyone is to place their nametags on the two giant nametags that we have created to be our wall pieces.
  3. Each week create a not quite so giant nametag for Jesus…The Messiah that covers the nametags with the congregations names. This changes each week to match the Name of Jesus for that week.
