4y ago9:48

9:48

You wouldn’t believe how much content I’ve produced that I’ve never published. As a #digitalministry specialist, stewarding the greatest story that’s ever been told, I need to stop doing that.Shortening the distance between idea and execution puts your ministry in the frame of mind necessary to behave like a media company. Such a mindset is vital t…

Communication is as much what you do, don’t do, and don’t say as much as it is what you say.Presence is as much a heart posture as it is a physical location.Progress: What have you dragged your feet on in the past?

#BlackOutTuesday was supposed to be about amplification. We do the opposite of that, though, when we needlessly evaluate people’s personal lives as the basis for discrediting their contributions. Let’s stop that.Need communications help? Holler at me: http://yourdigitalpastor.co #YourDigitalPastor

4+ y ago21:53

21:53

Just a few thoughts — The successful ministry in this new paradigm is not the one who will have the most powerful Sunday experience, but will be the one who will create engaging, God-glorifying content on a daily basis. Churches in this season will best show up online as their own networks.

What better advice can we receive than to focus our entire attention to what God is doing right now?

In this Christian journey, that which is not seen lasts far longer than that which is seen.
