  • Pitching Ideas to Your Pastor

    Sometimes you have ideas that need to go before your pastor. In this episode, Nathan and Thomas talk about some things to keep in mind when pitching those ideas.
    We want to make sure we give our pastor all the information so that he can make the best decision for our church. Notice we didn't say so we can get our way. In order to help you think through all the important details, we are offering this Ministry Recommendation Form. We hope you will use it.
