Brainstorming the Under Construction Theme

[maeflye]

We brainstormed a little about these theme, but there is so much more we can do with it.

Not only are we constructing a new service, but we are building our relationships and working no building our own spiritual lives.

One idea I think would be great would be to make videos of different members of the planning team in hard hats.

I got the idea from pay Per Post who posted videos during their startup. Then they started doing confessionals.

Check out this one:

Pay Per Post Start Up Confessionals.

The videos could be serious or silly or just plain fun -- but would tell about ourselves, entertain, and keep people's interest.

During the fall we could post different people's videos, pictures, music practices with hard hats on, or holding construction signs.

We could name small groups after different parts of constructions: The Cornerstones, the Foundations, the Body Builders, etc.

There are lots of Bible verses around building themes and many graphic ideas.

Take one of these ideas and run with it and post here -- or come up with your own.

Great article—while CAD drawings are an essential resource for architects and designers, their real power today comes when they’re integrated into BIM workflows, where models from different disciplines are combined and coordinated. One of the biggest challenges with complex architectural drawings is ensuring that all systems actually work together without conflicts, which is why clash detection is so important—it helps identify overlaps between structural, architectural, and MEP elements early in the design stage, reducing errors, delays, and costly rework . If you’re interested in how this works in real projects, this is a helpful resource https://mast-team.com/what-is-clash-detection-in-bim-and-why-it-matters-before-construction-begins/ that explains the process in more detail.

Nehemiah 3 lists who repaired which gate, family by family. You'll find your small group names right there in the text.

Psalm 127:1 for the kickoff, "Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it," before the campaign turns into a thermometer on the wall.
1 Corinthians 3:11 for the Foundations. Ephesians 2:20-22 for the Cornerstones, "fitly framed together." 1 Peter 2:5 for the Lively Stones, which I'd take over Body Builders, though Body Builders gets the laugh.

Skip stock art. You'll have hard hats and your own people's faces for a year. Shoot each group in their hats, then lay that group's verse over the photo. Online maker for
that step. Pick a verse, load your photo, drag the text, download. The picker holds a couple hundred verses rather than the whole Bible, so check yours is in it first.

Hand out the phone version as a lock screen the week that group is featured. Put the desktop version behind the announcement slide and reuse it as the title card on their video.
