Before we can start doing new church media things in the church, sometimes, we first need to STOP doing certain things. In this episode, I break down the five things that you church needs to stop doing right now...and what you should do instead to up both engagement and potentially save yourself time and money.

Curious about the five things you should stop doing? Here's the quick list:

1. Stop using clipart, wild fonts, and multiple colors on bulletins, power points, and anything

2. Stop having in-person free gifts to visitors

3. Stop only taking offerings only in person

4. Stop using Facebook to ONLY livestream your services

5. Stop thinking that your website is for your church people

Listen or watch now to see what you should be doing instead!

Your church needs to be on Google My Business. Why? Because if your church isn't on Google My Business, then people will have a hard time finding you! In this episode, I talk about about 4 main reasons why you need a Google My Business for your church.

1. It helps people find your church because you are telling Google that you're real

Welcome to the Small Church Media Podcast!

This podcast, unlike many other church media podcasts and YouTube channels is designed to quip and train pastors and church leaders of small churches....small meaning churches of 100 or less...fulfill their roles as pastors. Seeing as the average church size is 75 people, and I've been a part of many of those church, I thought, "hey! maybe I can help you guys!"

Getting back to pastors. As many already know, the pastor's role is to equip their people for Kingdom work, encourage their flock in the faith, and teach those in their care.

So in this podcast and YouTube channel, we're going to teach you how to do all of those things for as cheap as possible while still being as effective as possible. We're going to teach you how to understand church media, make better sermon powerpoints, start new ministries that are fueled by digital media, and maybe even bring some people in to chat with you about church media for small churches.

Starting August 17 and every Tuesday after that, I'll be posting a new episode everywhere podcast can be seen and heard. I promise that I'll do my best to keep them under 10 minutes so that you can take in the content quickly and in a time efficient manner, but I'm a Baptist Pastor....which means they may go longer.

I'm looking forward to learning alongside you and help your small church equip, encourage, and teach your congregations in ways that you never thought possible.
