184: Breaking Down Ministry Silos: Why Collaboration Matters in Small Churches


Listen Later

In this episode of The Small Church Ministry Podcast, Laurie names something many small churches deal with—but haven’t had the words for: ministry silos. 

You know when two ministries plan events on the same night—and no one realizes it? Or you hear about something great after it already happened? That’s a silo—and it’s more common than we think. 

We’ll talk about why silos form, how they quietly hurt small churches, and—best of all—how to start breaking them down without adding more to your plate.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

1. Signs your church might be stuck in silo-mode
2. Why silos are especially harmful in smaller churches
3. How collaboration can bring momentum and support
4. Practical ways to start building bridges
5. One simple conversation that can spark real change
