5 Common Core Issues in Churches: The Engagement & Capacity Issues - Episode 436

from The Unstuck Church Podcast with Amy Anderson · host Amy Anderson

​​Two common issues in churches tend to show up together, even though at first glance they don't feel related at all: first engagement steps and physical capacity. On the surface, they sound like two completely different problems. But, in reality, they're way more connected than most leaders realize. You can't grow sustainably if you're not engaging people well, and you can't engage people well if you don't have the space to serve them. These are two of the most common barriers we see; however, the good news is that these have proven solutions.  We're wrapping up our series on Five Common Core Issues in Churches by talking about revitalizing your playbook for first engagement steps, getting ahead of your capacity limits and thinking strategically to support health and growth in these areas.    This Episode is Sponsored by Planning Center Planning Center is software designed to help churches help people.
