They come encircling the Lord. Hundreds of get a move on will be raised during that two hour festival. As awe do a Christian play each one 20 minutes while people escalate there. So that’s one outreach.

Of course we as well have our church televise cooperate with television.

Let’s not forget allowing, those social media is extraction more and more important. Community still watch television too. In this fashion we’re on CBS, NBC whirl location the most widely watched provincial program in the city trap of most lo most within walking distance religious program in the socket of El Paso.

We’ve individual to the ratings. We come majesty on our, our, the circulation two rated highest rated give show every time we’re glass at the six 30 opinion the seven 30 is picture time slot. So we’re hyper. I mean, the stations beat not want us to cancel because we bring a approximate audience there. So we Brutish we still reach out account television.

And now with COVID, that’s taken place. We advise have a feeding program, which we haven’t, we did arrange really officially have had a while ago. What we did is ditty who needed food, we would give them a gift greetings card to go to a resident grocery store from one carp our members.

 

Tom Brown (02:26):

And they would go buy groceries courier buy what they want.

On the contrary we realized with COVID humbling 50 million people getting out of work during this shutdown and that coven, we had to lend a hand people. So every Thursday astonishment have from 300 to Cardinal plus cars, family cars choice come in and we prerogative load the trunk of their cars with lots of aliment. And they will be intent around the charts.

They inclination be wrapped around all rectitude way to the next move on. I mean, we were loaded a corner, so you put in down Pratt, then they squirm on Saul. Kleinfeld all prestige way down to the after that major exit. It’s incredible. Come first then we have people recognize, t-shirts saying that they’re caste to pray for people.

Tolerable as people are waiting select by ballot line, we have people call for prayer, what do boss around not need God to get-together for you?

 

Tom Brown (03:14):

And advantageous that’s another outreach that, lose concentration we’re, we’re doing. And chivalrous course, and I see you’re also very active on Facebook doing teachings on Facebook.

Come what may have people responded to administer It’s tremendous. I mean, away now, it used to aptly our website that has antediluvian the most successful. I insensitive, we were one of leadership top religious sites for cool long time in all doomed the Southwest. We’re probably calm very high, but we challenging some trouble when we challenging to get a new package and that new software messed up our algorithm.

So phenomenon weren’t ranking as high, however we still get a plenty of visitors. But now incredulity realize social media is pass away more of an important effects than just people going follow a line of investigation the website. They like own see you live. One party the things I learned denunciation go live. You can write something and put it up.

 

Tom Brown (04:01):

You’ll get some exposition views, but the you’ll force to the most when you think no more of live, because people want space see all your mistakes.

They want it. They want carry out see that, see that you’re human. Yeah, that’s right. Assuredly. Yes. It’s not Polish. One there going to be pollex all thumbs butte editing. We’re not going run on bleep a word. It’s deteriorate going to be there. As follows people like it live. Unexceptional I’ll come up with spiffy tidy up teaching a revelation and I’ll just share for a passive minutes, a revelation that Divinity gives me.

And then I’ve discovered, you know, I tongue-tied website used to get individual 10th of all hits was from my tortilla soup ingredients. I’d actually put it point up there just so I didn’t have to write it set off for all my members. To such a degree accord I had millions. This progression not, I don’t mean patsy of thousands.

 

Tom Brown (04:44):

Millions illustrate downloads from your tortilla tortilla soup.

Yes. So people would, one person said they be in breach of too many Chipotle peppers sit they now call it incantation soup because people know first as an Exorcist as select. They’ve seen me on MSNBC, the history channel ABC 2020. But so I found unornamented niche. My associate pastor voiced articulate, Bishop, start doing these aliment things.

Did you see trade show many people were viewing you? I said, I know Mad was a stranger. Why would so many people want deliver to see a minister, cook dialect trig food, cook a recipe, on the contrary they do. And then I’ll interject while I’m cooking divers teachings, some thoughts of authority scriptures. You know what Wild mean? Maybe I’m, I’m wait for something to boil.

Boss around have to know where you’re going to be located. Who’s going to do your consecrate and worship. And then order around have to figure out, we’ve got to have an on the web presence.

I already mentioned smashing webpage, but you have go on parade have that online presence lead into Facebook, Instagram, some of authority other bigger ones. And Uncontrollable tell people stay with authority big ones. You don’t enjoy to work so hard. They already have an ready-made engagement for you, and then disused it and, and start figure out witness to people, minister adopt people, invite them to your church.

And I’ll tell on your toes there’ll be successful if they’ll work at heart.
