Guest Pastor, Granada Church Jeff Sullivan · Ephesians 2:8-10 · Sunday, June 7, 2026
We let the algorithm, the Joneses, and the highlight reel define success for us — and then wonder why the trophy only satisfies for about two days. Guest Pastor Jeff Sullivan (Granada Church) walks through how the world's smartest people have tried to define success, why even a Super Bowl ring runs empty, and what Scripture says we were actually made for. From Ephesians 2:8-10 — by grace you have been saved, you are His workmanship, created for good works — he reframes success around two anchors: you cannot be successful outside of Christ, and He has redeemed you for something specific. The invitation is simple and personal: stop borrowing someone else's scoreboard and write your own definition of success, beginning with who you are in Christ.

Last Week's Pulse
▸
Per-sermon lifetime views by Sunday across all five surfaces — each point is one sermon (date · speaker). YouTube = views; Subsplash = plays. Lifetime totals, not weekly deltas. The gold band (0–50) is shown at 2× vertical scale so the low-volume surfaces have room for detail; above the dotted line the scale returns to normal (1:1).
† Jun 7 = live viewing only (newest sermon; on-demand views still accruing).
What Worked / What to Watch
▸
🟢 📱 Instagram is running strong (last 7 days *). Reach climbed +26% (985 → 1,242) and Interactions jumped +83% (174 → 319) — the church's largest social surface keeps growing.
🟢 🌐 Website held in the quiet week. Even between sermons, Users rose +12% (179 → 200) and engagement ticked up (66.4% → 67.6%) — the site kept drawing people in during the lull.
🟢 The fullest Sunday drop yet shipped. Heading into the window's close, one service produced a complete multi-surface package — EN + ES sermon pages, five devotionals, four vertical shorts, an 11-minute condensed cut, and two blogs.
🟢 🇪🇸 Spanish kept pace, same day. The Spanish sermon, page, and study guide go live on publish day — no Unlisted lag, no fallback-to-English gaps.
🟡 📺 Shorts are the biggest untapped lever. The prior week, YouTube Shorts were ~66% of all channel reach — this window almost none were posted and reach fell to ~4%. Turning Shorts posting back on (paused on the YouTube re-authorization) is the single fastest way to grow reach.
🟡 📊 A quiet video week — by design. YouTube views dipped (152 vs 573) in the lull between sermons; the 6/7 message and its shorts land in next week's numbers. Watch for the rebound.

Open Items
▸
- 📱 Instagram is shown for the last 7 days (asterisked) — IG isn't connected in Supermetrics, so a window-matched May 31–June 6 pull isn't automated; the last-7-days figure is the available real number. 📧 Mailchimp shows the most recent complete week. YouTube, Shorts + Website are the May 31–June 6 window.
- 📺 YouTube Shorts posting paused — blocked on the YouTube OAuth re-grant (Jeff). Re-enabling restores the channel's top reach driver.
