13:00 S1E1 Pilot Park Grove Community Church has lost its pastor and is closing its doors, unless it reinvents itself, despite itself...with the help of Chuck. 13:00 S1E2 Hospitality Taking on the role of a French waiter, Chuck cleverly sets a table for six to demonstrate for The Committee the true meaning of hospitality. It's not something you put on, it's a lifestyle. 14:00 S1E3 Reflecting the Community Chuck shuffles through Rummage Sale skeletons and broken lamps to illustrate The Committee has been asleep at the wheel. “Our community has changed, but we’ve stayed the same.” 14:00 S1E4 Our Purpose To better understand the church’s purpose, Chuck reminds the overly confident “good ideas” committee it just isn’t good enough. More important is the critical question “Why are we here?” 15:00 S1E5 Evangelism Evangelism, the “E-Word,” rears its ugly head. But The Committee takes a refreshingly different look at evangelism, discovering that the poor Mr. E-word may just be simply misunderstood. 13:00 S1E6 Understanding the Who Chuck’s amusing trip to “Whoville” is what it takes for The Committee to better understand “who” lives in the surrounding community, and that the Who should drive every decision The Committee makes. 15:00 S1E7 Discipleship System Playing a whistle-blowing referee, Chuck once again amusingly derails the small group with an investigation of discipleship 14:00 S1E8 Innovation When the lights go out, it illuminates the need for innovation, as the inimitable Chuck helps The Committee to “see the light,” that more innovation is essential for the church. 14:00 S1E9 Small Groups A simple question—what is a small group? But simplicity once again has The Committee upside down, as Chuck facilitates understanding one of the most important things we do at church, small groups. 14:00 S1E10 Children & Families in Church Daniel’s visiting daughter illuminates the church’s ineffective engagement of children and their families, prompting The Committee’s exploration of how important they are to the life of the church. 14:00 S1E11 Stewardship The Compass Committee grapples with the full meaning of stewardship in hopes of convincing the financially-prudent Mr. Riley to let go of the old idea that stewardship is merely an annual campaign. 14:00 S1E12 Committees That Work Endless “church committee” jokes have Chuck realizing the truth in many of the unflattering remarks. Chuck insists they answer the toughest question of all. Are they really making a difference? 14:00 S1E13 Embracing a Legacy The aging Compass Committee must confront the elephant in the room. Congregations are growing older. For the church to survive, younger and older adults must work together. Easier said than done. 14:00 S1E14 Young Leaders As the nerve-racking Jenga Game takes center stage, Chuck mediates The Committee debate over how older leaders must make mental and physical space for younger leaders. 13:00 S1E15 The Vote Time’s up! The long and arduous process—with all its emotional ups-and-downs—comes to an end. Will the Compass Committee decide to close the church’s doors or keep them open? 19:00 S1E16 Resurrection Resurrection! The new Park Grove Community Church opens its doors. Is it the end for the Compass Committee, or are they just getting started? It’s a new dawn, a new day, a new beginning. |
