PODCAST 088: Matt Lombardi – What Do You Mean Your Church Won’t Experiment?

By: The Church.Digital   Thank you very much, COVID. That long-term vision? That playbook? Your church’s strategy? It’s all trash.

PODCAST 081: Craig Whitney & Moving Beyond the Church Service Business

By: The Church.Digital   How do you start a church movement? Sure, there’s probably different ways we can answer that question. If we looked at Christ’s example, well, he started with 12 guys. Not a massive movement. He started with individuals and took three years to groom, grow, and disciple […]
