The Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast

In Part 1 of the Church Trends series, J.P. Pokluda and Gabrielle (Brie) McCullough of Harris Creek Baptist join Carey to talk about church trends for 2024.

They discuss why the stable church is disappearing, how to deeply engage the new core of your church—Millennials and Gen Z—and why the old approach doesn't work anymore, the role of serving, giving and confession in discipleship, and the new breed of today's megachurch pastor.

You don't have to do it all to be a good leader. BELAY is offering listeners their eBook, Delegate to Elevate for FREE.

GENERIS

Generis knows that while many churches take a one-size-fits-all approach to giving, there are several stages of giving that most givers go through. That's why they've developed free tools and resources to help you identify them in your church.

2024 will be a pivotal year for most church leaders, and it will probably be a pivotal year for your church.

The dust has settled from the Great Resignation (it's not even a thing anymore). If you made it through the last few years as a church leader, you're probably in for quite a few more years to come.

So, after years of chaos and heartache for many church leaders, it's a time to look to the future.

And that's what we'll be doing here on the podcast in January. The following 5 episodes will focus on trends in churchgoer attendance, discipleship, technology, a new kind of megachurch pastor, and more.

Each January, I write a highly anticipated blog post discussing church trends to watch. This year, for the first time ever, we're bringing that blog post to the podcast in a round table discussion with myself, JP Pokluda, and Brie McCullough of Harris Creek Baptist.

We've even made a free team guide that you'll be able to access so you can continue the discussion with your staff and volunteer teams.

The series will also feature conversations from, David Kinnaman, Ryan Burge, Brady Shearer, and John Mark Comer.
