As you listen to Liz share about how she leads a multi-campus ministry I don’t want you to think, oh my my church is so much smaller, or has few resources.  

I want you to listen for the familiar, listen for the heart and the desire to serve.  

It doesn’t matter if you have a single campus or multiple campuses the care is the same.  It’s creative, and it’s intentional.

When you think of your church’s care ministry does it have an intentional vision, budget, leadership, and plan?

In many churches, it’s an add-on to a staff person’s job description with no intentional plan, vision, budget or appointed leader overseeing it.

So in this episode, I’m going to walk through 5 ways you can approach your executive team or board about becoming more intentional about your church’s care ministry.

Listen in on this incredible session as Rich offers wisdom into 5 truths about sabbath.
