My hope is to provide ideas to help you find the content your church needs and highlight resources that your team can use to empower your congregation through your digital properties and social media.
I’ve pulled together some practical ideas that I’ve utilized in my career, along with suggestions from folks that are a lot smarter than I am under the blog category: For Churches. That way it will be easy for you to find the posts most important to you.
(Some of the content or tools might be a bit dated, but I hope you still find the strategies helpful.)
If you have question or have ideas of your own that you would like to share, click the button below to email me. I’m always happy to share good content when I find it.
