Solving Problems episodes:

March 03, 2021 People think the Church just cares about politics (featuring Tally Wilgis)
We live in a divided world that tries to use the teachings of Jesus for political gains. For us to reach people this culture, we have to show them that what we’re talking about is not political or governmental, but rather personal and spiritual. This week we go more big picture and talk about how we walk the line of speaking into the culture around us while not being partisan. We’ll also talk about how we respond to those who accuse us of jumping onto political trends.

February 24, 2021 People think the Church just wants their money (featuring Brandon Shanks)
Whether it’s prosperity preachers buying planes for themselves or the local pastor wearing expensive suits and driving a Cadillac, there’s a feeling amongst people – both in the Church and outside of it – that churches just care about getting people's money. This week we talk about how we need to own up to that perception before we can boldly invite people to invest their time, resources, and money into our church.

February 17, 2021 People need a map, not a menu (featuring Kyle Mercer)
We always want to give people a menu of things to choose from, but what they really need is a map of how to get where they want to go. This week we talk about what that looks like, how to implement it, and how to communicate it to your church.

February 10, 2021 People learn differently (featuring Jackie Brewster)
People are wired differently. They all learn in different ways and respond to different things. While some are motivated by fun and exciting things, others want to know details and facts before they commit to something. For us to have success in motivating our church to respond – whether to an event, to a service, or to the Gospel – we have to recognize everyone learns in different ways and then adapt our communications styles to those different learning styles.

February 03, 2021 People are busy (featuring Drew Powell)
People’s schedules don't revolve around the church anymore. We have to realize them coming to anything we do is a sacrifice of time and we should be honored they made that choice. If we treated people like that as opposed to shaming them for not making time for church, we’d be much more likely to attract people to things in the future. We talk with Drew Powell from Cross Point Church about how to shift our thinking to better reach people.

January 27, 2021 People are scared to walk into a new church (featuring Dallas Ovalle)
Walking in to a new church is terrifying. When I visited a new church for the first time last fall, I tried to do everything I could to figure out where I’d be going so I didn’t feel dumb or overwhelmed on Sunday morning. How can we address those things before people get to church, once they’re there, and as they start doing new things in our church.

January 20, 2021 People choose your church for a reason (featuring Eric Williams)
People choose our church for a specific reason - it could be the teaching, the music, the culture. Whatever it is, people are there for a reason. This week we talk about how you should leverage that and press into it as much as possible to more effectively reach people in your community.

January 13, 2021 People have been hurt by the church (featuring Stephen Brewster)
Church hurt is real. We have to realize we don’t automatically get the benefit of the doubt anymore. We have to earn that and earn the right to be heard. How do we do that? How do we acknowledge past hurts without making it awkward?
