Well, what a long and strange trip it has been.
My last post talked about 200k hits on our "Sunday" video as though it was a lot. And it was.
But after quickly passing the million mark, we just as quickly got to two million. Things have slowed down now quite a bit, but I have a feeling they will accelerate again once a certain day of the week visits us again. 2 million is a lot for a church, can't say it's really a lot for youtube videos in general. So there is some perspective at work here.
At our Downtown Naperville location, and at the Yellow Box, this weekend we will be showing the video during the service in preparations for Easter. Last week it was shown at our Shorewood and Plainfield locations. I would love to say that we will be showing it on Easter Sunday, but seriously. This video is meant for a lot of things, but maybe an actual Easter Service isn't one of them.
Don't know what I'm talking about? Here's the parody video we made, and released a week ago. Yep, it's only been a week.

Sadie has been doing great with her new found "fame" - and we are enjoying the buzz around the local neighborhood. In the end, that's where the impact is. Sure, all the other sites that linked to it and played it and loved to hate on it and all that stuff, it's pretty cool to get that fifteen minutes of internet fame, but the fact that when I picked up the kids from school, our neighbors who don't attend church anywhere that I know of, were all talking about church. Even in the context of an absurd video.
The plan worked. Not how we thought it would, but what do we know anyway...
