Podcast Episode #209

Discuss a recent post on the four highest worship attendance days of the year. We also discuss the best ways to use these to your advantage as a church with intentional follow-up and strategic planning.

Some highlights from today's episode include:

* A Christmas Eve service is the number one time to reach those who are unchurched.

* Those who are unchurched and lost don’t really consider Easter as a day for church.

* Easter is a great time to promote groups because those who usually attend are nominal attenders.

* You will have more non-churched guests for a Christmas Ever service than any other time of the year.

* You have got to be strategic and intentional when following up with guests.

* Churches should be strategic about high attendance days and not let these come and go without a plan.

The four high attendance days we cover are:

* Easter

* Christmas Eve

* Mother's Day

* Contextual Day
