Welcome back to The Clarence Stowers Leadership Podcast, a podcast about becoming 1% better every day. This podcast focuses on inspiring and equipping highly motivated and creative people to take decisive action to level up in all aspects of their lives while also producing their best work. This week's Episode: What If They Don't Come Back Like We Thought They Would, features Pastor Kervance Ross.First, I'm interviewing thought leaders regarding the church's lifecycle, chart its decline (pre-Covid), how Covid accelerated change and forced us online, and what's next on the horizon. Next, we will converse about measuring church online and hybrid church metrics. Additionally, I'd like to drill down on why views are not what we should solely measure. Finally, we will end our interview by focusing on what's next for the church and how pastors & church leaders can plan. The goal is for the listener to walk away with a few "next steps" regardless of where their ministry is right now.Meet Pastor Kervance D.
