Colossians 1:1–14 · Greater Than · Week 1

A mixed week as the new Colossians series opens. YouTube normalized off the July-4 breakout — views eased 4,669 → 1,429 and avg-view% 26.7% → 12.7% as the Shorts cadence stepped back from seven clips to four — yet the channel kept climbing to 349 subscribers. The website was the bright spot: users 254 → 258, page views 607 → 669, and engagement up to 65.0% (from 62.8%). Pulse window July 5→11 vs June 28→July 4. Mailchimp is hand-read this week and Instagram's tile is still pending its manual pull. The Greater Than message shipped full-stack — EN + ES pages, 5 devotionals, 4 branded Shorts, a condensed cut, and two blogs (the sermon blog plus James Drake's covenant field devotion).

Nationalism?

Kent Keller

Acts 17 · What About? · America at 250

A breakout week on YouTube: with the Shorts engine posting seven clips across the window, views jumped more than 10× (366→3,730) and average-view% nearly doubled (14.3%→25.0%), the channel crossing 343 subscribers. Pulse window June 28→July 4 vs June 21→27. Mailchimp came back online with three in-window sends (the 7/01 weekly eNews reached 1,118 at 47.5% open), while the website eased slightly off last week's climb but held a healthy 63% engagement through the holiday. Instagram is the one tile still pending this week. The Christian Nationalism message shipped full-stack — EN + ES pages, 5 devotionals, 4 full-treatment Shorts, a condensed cut, and two blogs.

Pastor James Drake

1 Samuel 17:25–49 · What About? · Week 11 (Father's Day)

Father's Day "Manhood" Sunday shipped full-stack — EN + ES sermon pages, 5 daily devotionals, 4 captioned vertical Shorts + IG Reels, an ~9-minute condensed cut, two blogs, and 16 Spanish NVI verse cards. Pulse window June 14→20 vs June 7→13: Instagram and the website both climbed (sessions +12%, engagement to 70%); YouTube dipped because the Shorts engine went dark mid-week on a lapsed OAuth grant — diagnosed and re-authorized, with 8 Shorts + Reels now scheduled (Mon–Thu). Mailchimp is the one tile still pending.

Guest Pastor Jeff Sullivan

Ephesians 2:8–10 · What About? · Week 9

Fullest multi-surface Sunday yet — EN + ES sermon pages, 5 daily devotionals, 4 vertical shorts, an 11-minute condensed cut, and two blogs, all live before Monday. NEW this report: a dedicated YouTube Shorts Pulse card — and it surfaced the headline insight: Shorts were 73% of all YouTube reach in late May but went dark this week (posting paused on the OAuth re-grant). A quiet analytics week by design — the lull between sermons (Sunday's message lands in next week's numbers). Pulse window 5/31→6/6 vs 5/24→5/30. IG + Mailchimp show the most recent complete week, flagged for refresh.

Pastor Kent Keller

Matthew 5:13–16

Kent Keller opened Matthew 5 to answer the question pressing on new believers: does the resurrection matter on Monday? The post is built around three keyword clusters (apologetic queries, scripture queries, local/brand) and designed to pull both skeptics and new Christians to a pastoral next step.
