How do we know if our ministry is actually making an impact?

from The Keenly Podcast

Are we actually making a difference, or just doing something for the sake of doing something? Is it a part of our mission, or has it become a part of our tradition?Those are the questions Jason, Chad, and Ethan unpack in this episode. They reflect on real ministry moments, including a couple in Chad's church whose simple act of faithful presence led a woman to Jesus, and Ethan's own experience of how an invitation into a community his freshman year of college turned him into a leader on campus, multiplying into leaders beyond him.In this episode, you'll hear:Why activity and impact are not the same thing, and why the difference matters more than most churches realizeWhy changed lives are a better measure of ministry health than a busy calendarHow understanding real needs in your community creates the kind of ministry moments that actually matterThis episode picks up where last week's conversation left off. If your church is doing a lot but you're not sure it's making a difference, this one is for you.If this hits close to home, we'd love to have that conversation with you.
