More input needed

Yesterday I was asked to coordinate/produce four services for a new leadership training event at The Local Megachurch (as my friend and fellow blogger Jan calls it). “The LAB” includes three days of special speakers (including Boundaries author Henry Cloud) and over 40 workshops on everything from small groups to social justice. It should be a good time.

However, my focus will be on the four services that bring the whole group of (hopefully) 800-1,000 people together in worship and learning. These times need to include Moments (you know what I mean), funny and/or meaningful videos, unusual and creative plays on the “lab” theme (perhaps a local chemistry teacher blowing things up on the side?), interactive and fun things to get people talking to each other around round tables, and some common elements to run through the entire experience.

The gig is just a few weeks away, and I need your help. You know where the best videos-for-purchase are, right? You probably just thought of 10 cool takeoffs on the lab theme, and at least once this year you did something out of the usual routine that really connected with people.

I need to know what those are! Will you drop me a line and let me know? If it helps, the themes for the four services are leadership (duh), integrity, leadership in crisis (with a pastor from New Orleans) and blessing/commissioning.
