What If Starbucks Marketed Like The Church?

Hello all. I usually try to post Pastor Charles’ Sunday sermon on Monday morning, but it will be delayed this week because I left yesterday without picking up the recording. Check back in the coming days and I’ll have it up. To tide you over, here’s a tongue-in-cheek video that looks at what Starbucks would look like if it was run like the church.

Dedication Sunday

This Sunday, November 9th, is Dedication Sunday at Glenwood. For those of you participated in our Samaritan’s Purse ministry, remember to bring your packed shoeboxes (along with a check for $7.00) and place them around the communion table as you enter the sanctuary Sunday morning. You may also bring them Sunday night to SHINE. For more information on this great ministry, go to the Samaritan’s Purse webpage.

We will also be asking members to make a pledge for your giving level for 2009. Pastor Charles has challenged us to give a percentage of our income and raise that percentage each year. Please prayerfully consider what God is asking you to give to the work of the church next year.

See you Sunday!

Transition Team Meeting Tonight

The Glenwood Presbyterian Transition Team is meeting tonight at 7:00 p.m. I chair this committee and we are going to possibly be deciding on a transition plan to present to the Session at the November 16th meeting. As you can see, this is important “God’s will” type stuff that we will be discussing. Please pray for us as we deal with these matters.

Articles For Pastor Search Committee

Our Pastor Search committee will hopefully be formed in the next few months (we have to complete our “Mission Study” first) and when they are, they would probably do well to consider some of the ideas in these two articles.

First, Billy Graham tells us to Seek A Person of Godly Character as our next pastor.

Second, this blog article tells us that there are Five Kinds of Pastors as far as leadership styles. For what it’s worth, I’d vote for the “Cultivating Pastor.”

Some Glenwood News

I haven’t posted many articles of note here lately, so here goes:

With College Growth, Lines Are Crossed: This article mainly deals with some negatives of High Point University’s growth, but if you look near the end of the article you will see the feeling that the Glenwood community would welcome UNC-G’s presence on Lee Street.

A Conversation With UNC-G Chancellor Linda Brady: Again, we see an article that contains a discussion of how Glenwood’s future might be tied up with the future of UNC-G.

New Bookstore In City Of Writers: An article about a new independent bookstore opening on Grove Street.
