HOW TO GET THROUGH WHAT YOU’RE GOING THROUGH: What if each week we gathered small pieces of parchment paper, handed out in each program, opportunity to return those in the offering bag, write down the words that signify what they are struggling with, that they need to get through… then those pieces were assembled into a book that was used in week 4 of the talk - as an example of 1) here are all our stories of struggles 2) use the pain to build your faith, 3) you are not alone! Get in a group! - Add to this the notion of a concerted effort to have Prayer teams staffed with SG Leaders for weeks 3 and 4 at the end of the service that if you’d like specific prayer for your stuff, to encourage the “you are not alone” concept. - Graphic Idea: Light/Dark, Black/White, negative space, desert - We like the ones that are using color, trying to avoid B&W - Desert, negative space - mess with perspective, see the cracks of the desert floor and can’t tell if it’s a cavernous space or just a sliver. - I Am by - Your Promises by Elevation - Have small group leaders available for prayer each week. Especially week 3 and 4. - Trouble Won’t Go by Enter the Worship Circle - In the Hours by Indelible Grace - Oft in Sorrow by Indelible Grace - Let Me Find Thee by Indelible Grace - It Is Well by Hillsong Chapel - Psalm 121 by All Sons and Daughters - It is Well - Bethel - Song: Fix My Eyes - For King & Country - Song - Don’t You Worry Child by Swedish House Mafia - Musical Theatre Song – Is Anybody Listening?

Intertwine with it that weeks supporting Scripture. Acoustic music can be playing softly in the background. - Bumper - Write on paper - quotes on suffering - famous quote. Each week is three different ones. Kind of like stories of hope video. They separate and fall, - become the cracked desert of the graphic. Song: Trouble by Imagine Dragons - Song: Wasteland (live version) - - Song: Desert Song - Dark Horses by - Song: I Still Believe - - This song is about Jeremy losing his wife to cancer at the age of 24. Could possibly share this story or one like it along with the song. - Song: Everybody Hurts - REM - Song – Is There Anybody Out There, Pink Floyd, could be cool with a bumper or opening moment - Song – You’ll Be Okay by A Great Big World - Song: Silence by - Song: Cure for the Pain by - Song - Jesus Take the Wheel, Carrie Underwood - Song - If You’re Going Through Hell, Rodney Atkins - Song: Rise Above This (Seether) - Song - Wake Me Up by Avicci - Brene Brown Video Clip - “Haunted House” Ellen video: In the introduction of the message, we’d like an edited (shortened) version of this clip. We’re talking about how when we’re facing scary things in our lives, we often just want to “get through” them and instinctively we grab onto whatever we can to help us deal with our fear (in this case, the nearest person). Try to clip the parts where the guy grabs onto the woman and hides behind her. - Original Song: Shkendie - Psalm 13 - performed at Edgewater - “Unfailing Love” - Song: Chandelier - Sia - Song: Pain - Jimmy Eat World - Song – The Monster by Eminem ft.

I think we will tell the story of the mishaps of a family on vacation (without revealing we’re referring to the Griswolds) and then go to this clip of the family arriving at Wally World only to find it closed. Cut the clip at the point where Clark punches the statue in the nose. - Song: Sun & Moon by Phil Wickham - Song: We’re All in This Together - Ben Lee - Song: A Life Less Ordinary (Need a Little Help) - Communion Song: Take My Life - Movie Clip - Rocky IV - talking to his younger son, inspirational and motivating speech - Video: in the second Hobbit movie, we find the company lost in Mirkwood, but then Bilbo climbs above the treeline to find the sun, and their way. - Take Me to the King by Tamela Mann - My Life is in Your Hands by Kirk Franklin - The focus of week 4 is on not wasting our pain...allowing God to use our suffering to make a difference in the lives of others. - Funny video idea: Someone keeps getting hurt.

MASTERPIECE: Graphic idea: Empty ornate wooden frame with the words “Your portrait here” printed in the middle. On the bottom left is the word “Masterpiece” written like an artist’s signature. - Mosaic graphic - bunch of images from CCC (use #cccbeautiful) Each week the image is developed more - final week you see the image. What is this image? Ideas: Jesus, crown of thorns - Same idea as above, but its framed. First week is just frame, black background, with center tile - label that says (masterpiece). Each week more images are added. - Photos from the church form the words Masterpiece. Background is a canvas look. Landscape vs portrait. Portrait would have an art gallery background. - Short animation of brush strokes over a white canvas - word Masterpiece appears. - Bumper idea: “Masterpiece Theatre” style intro, with the book of Ephesians and pictures of Jesus in frames highlighted. - Graphic Idea: Mosaic of photos of all different people (Community attenders from every campus?) forming one picture--the cross, Jesus, “masterpiece”, etc - *Each campus could make their own mosaic using a website like this one: http://mosaically.com/ - Set design: Empty large picture frames everywhere on the stage, hanging, placed, etc. - added bonus for Mother’s Day: set up a portrait gallery to get a picture with mom holding a large frame - Would love to see a different art form featured each week somehow (Dance, visual art, video, music, acting, literature) Not sure how that would work yet, but most (if not all) of the associations with masterpieces are creative in nature - Set idea: potter’s wheel, and a continually forming piece of pottery. each week the clay is molded further and further into a masterpiece. - No Longer Slaves by Bethel Music - Could be a great new worship tune, or a special for week 2. Beautiful video as well. - Something Beautiful - NEEDTOBREATHE - Dove Commercial - Stop Animation Video (It’s a Homerun I think): Your Identity In Christ - Turn the Screen into a giant picture by Framing the screen to look like an old painting. - Video idea – Bring back the AT&T Parody for a special Mother’s Day message from Community. We can do better than this: Opening line: “What’s better: Mom or Dad?” Commercial – “Here’s to the Moms” by Google - Video – a message from Mr. T, YouTube - Video/Song – “Treat your Mother Right” by Mr. T. (could be a welcome video, opener) - Video – Jimmy Kimmel clip “What’s the worst thing you ever heard your mommy say?” - Video – “Who’s Your Favourite?” on YouTube (could be a welcome video, opener) - Song: Masterpiece by Jessie J - Song: Try by Colbie Caillat - Song – “Masterpiece” by Jazmine Sullivan - Video: Dove Real Beauty Sketches (can’t remember if we’ve already show this, but would be awesome to show and maybe add at the end “you are a masterpiece”) - Song: Firework - Katy Perry (MN) Acoustic version: - Song: Beautiful -Christine Aguilerra - Song: Who Says - Selena Gomez - Book: You are special by Max Lucado. This is a great children’s book about a wooden character who continues to get “bad” labels, but they fall off when he meets Eli, the toy maker. Somehow use a section of it? - DORI shared this story at Blast - big hit - Combine this idea with the “pass out stickers” idea - Video idea: montage of videos with “masterpieces” like Ghost pottery, Ferris Bueller art gallery scene, Karate Kid “paint the fence.” Just something funny to start the series. - Upon entry pass out stickers to people with the titles “nerd” “geek” “rich” “poor’ etc. There’s a time in the message where the teacher references the sticker and talks about identity and instructs people to remove the sticker. Upon exit people pick up a sticker with the word “Masterpiece” on it. - Kids Video - “What’s your favorite thing about mom? - Who are you by - Who did you think I was by John Mayer - In Christ Alone - Grace so Glorious - As by (Nichole Nordeman version maybe) - Helplessness Blues by - - This is Who I Am - Oh Mother Of Mine - “Beautiful” by James Blunt - Beautiful Things – I Am Free - Poetic [live] reading of Psalm 139:13-18 with video display of life in the womb (utilize excerpts from National Geographic in the Womb)[Follow with] “Always” by Switchfoot - Identity Story (Possible Video?) In the message, we want a story of a mom who struggled with her identity but is finding a new path as she tries to live into her identity as a child of God. I’m going to be asking Mary Leddon (who leads a number of groups that address this) if there is one great story that’s emerged from her ministry. If we get something that’s awesome, could we consider a video testimony? - The Mom Song - Song – “Jesus Loves the Little Children of the World” Rebecca St. James style: - Song: Who We Are - Switchfoot - Song: Identity - (this song is so cheesy but it fits...maybe a slower version for Communion) - Song: Who Are You? - The Who - I Know Who I Am - Israel/Tomlin - Song: Sister Sledge - We Are Family - Song: I’m Not Who I Was - Brandon Heath - Song: We Are - Kari Jobe (if you haven’t used it yet recently) - Song: Who I Am In You - Addison Road - Remember the Titans Clip - VIDEO - people from all backgrounds reading Eph. 2:16-19 - if not in the message, could be used in the bridge of a song too.

Word of “God” comes in from the sky, “I want you, my children, to make a FOIL BALL. Teacher/host walks through the dilemma. I can’t do that by myself, but if I hand my foil to you, and you hand it to her, and she hands it to him, then by the time you get to the end, we can altogether make a foil ball - but we can’t do it by ourselves. - Same idea as week 4, but be specific about the five gifts, with color or shape, and each time you are putting that piece in a specific place -Interactive worship moment: give all attenders a mosaic piece, a broken piece - each service thru communion comes up front to bring their piece to the cross - build a frame that contains the mosaic pieces into a cross frame - a work of art - Beautiful Things – Gather photographs of local church members and utilize in ProPresenter as background during chorus of song (or run lyrics along bottom of photographs) - APEST Assessment: A brief APEST assessment tool that we’ll have people BIG IDEA FACTORY take during the message (kind of like we did once with the 5 Love Languages tool...didn’t we do that?). This will help people begin to think about how they’ve been gifted. 100 Pianos Creative Moment - We could go in a number of directions: 1) Just use the 100 Pianos quote by A.W. Tozer in the conclusion as a way to end the talk and lead into Communion. Here is the quote: “Has it ever occurred to you that one hundred pianos all tuned to the same fork are automatically tuned to each other? They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshipers met together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be, were they to become ‘unity’ conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship.” – A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God 2) Use the quote and pair it with a video we find. I’m not sure if the one Docent pointed us to would work but maybe there is some other out there (with pianos) that could be used. 3) Use the quote and create our own original video to go with it. This could be something like we’ve done before where you see people (probably on keys) playing at our various campus locations and when you put them all together it creates one powerful piece. Or it could be something where we film a bunch 3-2-1: Countdown clock online - hours,minutes,seconds leading up to Sept. 14th http://countingdownto.com/ - Song parodies with September 14th plugged into the lyrics - Use CP’s to mimic a boy band.

We invite because God invited us) - Campus Pastor Video: in background of bumper - Graphics: Jones Style? - Overall series singalong: “Fall Afresh” by Bethel - Overall series idea: incorporate some ancient (or at least ancient-ish) instruments and music into our sets: lute, dulcimer, flute, bodhran (irish drum), harp, panpipes, Production number of all CPs singing High School Musical’s “We’re All In This Together” - Get SPA choreographer to do boy band type moves.

The directions we believe best facilitate that are the 3Cs (Upward, Toward, Outward). Decisions are the specific things we’re going to challenge you to to take next steps in the 3Cs. We’re planning on referencing this overall concept for the series in every message. Dave wondered if there was some way to visually illustrate this in the bumper with the Eddy showing how as the 3Cs start moving in our life, they lead us in the fourth direction...forward. - “How I Connect with God” Video: Compilation video of 10-12 people (possibly staff) answering the question: “How do you best connect with God?” in 10-15 seconds each. The idea is to illustrate various “sacred pathways.” If we use staff, some people we talked about: Kirsten Strand (serving), Tony Germann (nature), Tammy Melchien (contemplation/journaling), Patrick O’Connell (intellectual)... There are nine sacred pathways.

The TP adds some “bricks” with ways we build walls on it. During a song after the teaching we knock the wall down. - Walls Down by Highlands Worship: 2014 - 2015 SOME OF THE ARTISTS WHO FTWBTG IN 2014-2015

(could work out after wall building) - Babel by Mumford & Sons (could work out after wall building) - Testimony Video (Requested by Teaching Team): Testimony (preferably from a guy) about how he got real/vulnerable with someone in his Small Group and that led to a deepening of friendship/connection. To be used in the message. - Video Idea (not in message...just an idea from Teaching Team): “The Wall” by Gloria Jay Evans. Picture book parable. Use the images from the book and a voiceover of edited content to create a 3-4 minute story.

Teaching Team decided we’d like to have 5-7 minutes of the talk (the all-church part) be video of Dave with the first part being the same for all campuses and the last minute or two being campus specific where Dave talks about how he has seen God do “more than we can ask or imagine” at each individual campus. - Quote from Dave when we were 3 locations - referenced in Podcast: I believe that one day Community Christian Church will be a church, not of just one location or two locations or even three locations – but a church with 10 physical campuses!

Four characters - each one only says one of the words/phrases for the series - No, I Understand, I Love you, Thank You. - Bumper - Make up clips that in the 70’s TV show style - characters are using the words / phrases of the series. Mom sitting on the bed with daughter, saying, “I understand.” Compose our own theme song - sitcom, 70’s style for this series. Bumper is all four - same song, same clips. Ends with “today’s episode is, ____” Don’t want every relationship situation to be a part of the same nuclear family. Its about relationships - not just family. Shrink, Boss, school friends. Each week is a different intro? Different situation. Not any word is assigned to any one character. Changes each week. Popcorn, a lot of different clips from 3 - 4 locations. Each week we see four or five of these. Maybe not different people each time. Its a mixture. - Location - In front Buckingham fountain. Like Married with Children - Series Graphic - people - frozen, overlay of the words. Cast of the fake sitcom. Like Growing Pains. Series graphic should have more of a dated, 70’s background with the same font / text treatment that will be used in the bumper. - Any scene in “Yes Man” with - Song: Nobody But Me by The Human Beinz - Video idea - “Dude” commercial parody substituting the word “NO” (could do this for each week with ) - Song – “Great Big No” by The Lemonheads - Video - Never say no to Panda - Rent a panda costume- Will be in the message - Video clip – Steve Jobs says “no” - Have people practice saying “no” in certain situations during message. - Video: Dikembe Mutombo geico commercial - Sketch Idea - A guy is bold telling his co-workers how he will tell his boss NO the next thing he asks and then each time he buckles and says yes right away.

Overly dramatic - “Say” by John Mayer - Have John Blumburg do a section of the teaching on video for all campuses (or BZ) - “Impulse Man” – video about a guy who never says no to any of his desires. It starts off funny…he eats an entire bag of chips, jay-walks, etc BUT can get crazier and crazier as time goes on. - Clip from Office Space w/ the guy with the red stapler just getting walked on and not saying no. - Comcast Bad Customer Service: Choose 30-60 seconds of this clip that best illustrates how the customer service rep is not listening to the customer.

Actual Jimmy Fallon, or live on stage using TP/CP Careful of inside jokes.

Perhaps they are all runners, outdoor shots, they reach “the edge” of hope, they’re out of breath, and they’re looking for answers. We don’t know their individual stories or situations, but we hear their subtext spoken aloud as VO – Waiting, Expecting, Hoping. Have I done something wrong? Why are you punishing me? What can I possibly learn from this? - Guy getting off the train and stops. Everyone around him is moving quickly. Guy getting off the train, and stops or in real time. Everyone is moving slowly. Everyone around him is in black and white. Main person has color - Person looks up, person looks to the horizon. Look to the star? Similar to the Adventure series - but takes place in the city. Create b-roll video from this video that would work behind songs. - Song: Everywhere to Me - Scenarios: El Train, Cab, Driving to work, Someone working at a skyscraper looks out the window, airport, See the star, that takes them on the journey that takes them to the sunrise. Series Graphic- Plays off of the idea of the star. Not Christmas cheesy. - FDR quote: We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon. - Christmas Carol Covers - Future of Forestry - Christmas with Weezer - Bumper using general quotes of Hope, VO with footage/pics then move into Bible verses on Hope. - Man on the Street - Asking “What do you Hope for this Christmas” , Maybe the person asking questions dressed as Santa. - This is hilarious, and must be watched: Bethlehemian Rhapsody - Kids Opening Christmas Presents: Videos showing kids reactions to opening gifts.

If this ends up being a story about a COMMUNITY attender, we might want it to be captured as a video testimony. - Sketch/Video - “But We’re Bible Characters!” - Stories retold in a modern way, but in biblical garb. Everytime the characters are faced with the unexpected, they react by saying, “But we’re Bible characters!” and they do the thing that the Bible says they should do, reacting in the expected way. - Live or video game show sketch - Define, Defeat, Develop - contestants are presented with real-life curveballs, and they can either choose to let it Define, Defeat, or Develop them. 9 out of 10 times, they will choose “Define” or “Defeat”, and give a ridiculous peak into their rationale, revealing (and poking fun at) the ways we tend to respond to difficulty. e.g. “[With a smile] I’m going to let that Define me, Bob.

A QUESTIONABLE LIFE: Series Graphic Idea: Letters that look like this -- maybe saying “?LIFE” as the logo.

Come up with 4-6 of these. We’ll want to create Venn diagram graphics to illustrate this. Possibly a graphic sequence that shows the first item, the second item and then the intersection of the two. - Story Video: We’d like a story here of a person who found belonging through an unlikely friendship. Could possibly include 2 people...the person who reached out and the person who was reached. The person who reached out should be someone who went to others on their own turf.

As they began a new life rooted in relationship with God, it led them in directions that were truly countercultural as Patrick quit his lucrative job to move to Kansas City to help Troy and Janet launch Restore.

Clip from the movie Nemo - Balancing Contest - live in the services: We bring people up on stage and have them try to balance different things on their heads as a representation about them relying on themselves as the source.

We follow a person throughout the day who believes that everything comes from him. Instead of saying “Thank You” he always says “Thank Me” and other backwards-inwardly-focused things” Need to brainstorm some other gratitude related phrases. (OR make it a hidden camera video where we get people’s reactions to the guy when he says “thank me”) I’m welcome, pleased to meet me, how are we?, mi casa es mi casa, your pleasure, the pleasure is yours - Doxology - “praise God from whom all blessings flow” - the source. - Video: Daffy Duck “It’s Mine!

Maybe it’s a communion meditation moment instead of a full on song. - Tithe Rap - from 12Stone Church honestly a bit cheesy but some funny moments - Ladder on Stage - Epic Ladder Fails - We’d love a compilation either from movies or something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YU_uB_6i18 showing ladders failing. - Great story about an NFL Player who left millions on the table to become a farmer. He gives all the crops he raises away to food pantries to feed the hunger.

FINDING YOUR WAY BACK TO GOD: All Weeks, Prodigal Son Stories: Teaching Team would LOVE for the Big Idea Factory to brainstorm creative ways to tell the story of Luke 15:11-24 (beginning through younger son...can leave older son part out) prior to the message each week. That way within the message construct we can just refer to the part of the story we’re focusing on that week instead of having to tell the story in it’s entirety each week within the message. Possible pre-message ideas: Simple reading of the text during opening worship set, “Man-on-the-Street” video where the story is told with each person saying “this is my story” at the end, Veggie Tales (might work for week 5), etc. - Brick testament - People reading parts of the story each week in different, dramatic ways, using a translation like the MessageDEMITRI (could use testimony people) - MORRISCould use multiple translations. - Tell the story through original song - have scripture on the screen duringKELSEY the song that coincides with MOK the story. - Telling the story using the same treatment - mom on the phone, talking to son “really AMYupset that you took everythingTEWS and left” Keep tension in the story. progressive, each one from a different perspective. Mom, Drug dealer, Bar friends, girlfriends, mom and dad talking. - Confession booth type of motif - Michael Mark poetry reading of the Prodigal son. - Artist draw images, stop motion telling of the story. - Sand art type of animation telling the story. - Video clips telling the Prodigal son story - shooting snippets of the story, cinematic close ups, similar to the Hosea Love Story videos for Pursued - Could be like a video blog, character is already past the story, he is walking through the places where he lived the story - filming it - Artistic storytelling sketches: - Watch Burning Bridges video from One Republic for another style idea. 5 different ideas - not a 5 part video. - “Song Moment” within the message: Early in the message we’ll be talking about the longing for love, meaning, and purpose. We’d like to “lighten” this moment by doing something fun with familiar songs that point to these core longings. Might have 10 second audio clips play encouraging everyone to sing along or the TP could start the phrase and have the congregation finish it. “You Can’t Always Get...What You Want…” “I Still Have Found...What I’m Looking For…” “Looking for Love...In All The Wrong Places…” - Song - Andrea Summer “Better” - Song - Switchfoot (love to see a new arrangement) “” - Song - Brooke Fraser “C.S.

As he limped around the track determined to finish, his father broke through security and ran to him on the track and helped him across the finish line. - “Altar Call” - altar-call style opportunity for people to come forward for prayer. Included in this will be the opportunity to say “yes” to baptism for those finding their way back to God for the first time - Song - Lord, I Need You by Matt Maher - Song - NEEDTOBREATHE “Wasteland” This could move into something like “How He Loves” or “Come As You Are” during an extended Communion/Altar Call/FYBTG moment/or Baptism - Song - You Make Me Brave - Song- How Can it Be by Lauren Daigle - Song - Jesus Loves Me by Chris Tomlin - Video Story: Jen Murphy (from the book).
