Podcast Episode #042
Earlier this week, I shared eleven common mistakes made by churches. That post garnered a huge reaction from you, the readers—so much so that Jonathan and I recorded an “emergency podcast episode” of sorts later in the day about the topics I discussed in the post. Whatever church you serve in or attend, these common mistakes can be fixed, and in most cases, fixed relatively easily.
- Failure to have a informative, easy-to-use website.
- Failure of pastors and staff to be actively involved in social media.
- Failure of pastors and staff to understand they represent the church when they are involved in social media.
- Failure to urge people to be a part of groups.
- Failure of leaders to be actively involved in influencing the content of groups.
- Failure of church members to be considerate of where they sit during a worship service.
- Failure to have parking lot greeters.
- Failure to have clearly marked guest parking.
- Failure to have clearly marked entrances to the worship center.
- Failure to have clearly marked entrances to the church offices.
- Failure to have adequate restroom facilities.
