Generosity is a sensitive issue. After all, it requires talking about money. That’s why, when it comes to giving, people typically take a pass. They reserve money talk for times when it’s absolutely necessary — like when there's a crisis or the annual budget meeting is coming up. If you’re in this boat, you’re not alone.

As churches grow, and as the congregation becomes more diverse, it can be difficult to create an environment where parishioners feel connected. In addition, St. Anthony of Padua has faced additional challenges, like Hurricane Harvey. Nevertheless, by focusing their communication efforts on connection the church is building a place where engagement thrives. Stephen Lenahan, Director of Development & Communications at St. Anthony’s, came on the latest episode of The Nurtured Church podcast to share

Your church staff culture will have a trickle down effect on your congregational culture. That’s why it’s so important to think about nurturing engagement as you hire, onboard, and integrate your staff members. I wanted to talk with someone who has a great perspective on this. Holly Tate is the VP of Marketing at Vanderbloemen — they help churches and faith-based organizations build their best teams, which now often includes “Experience Pastors.” So, on this episode of The Nurtured Church podcast,

No matter how big your church is, if your organization isn’t healthy, you’re likely not going to be around for very long. You can be hosting thousands of people every weekend, but if your staff is burned out, or you run your church like a dictatorship, using people to get what you want, your church likely won’t be doing all that it could be.

How Church Leaders Build a First-Class Community Online When it comes to technology within our churches and ministries, the time isn’t yesterday. It’s now.

That’s probably because our recent podcast guest, Nils Smith, was a student pastor, innovation pastor, social
