Better Hospitality
Are you the newly-appointed volunteer of the committee or to address hospitality, greeters, or assimilation in your church?
You want your hospitality ministry to improve because it is not where it should be or could be.
Does your hospitality ministry feel stuck?
Are people resisting your leadership because they don’t want to change?
Are you frustrated that they “just don’t get it?”
Do you feel there just too much information out there to know how to begin?
Better Evangelism
Feel awkward having have spiritual conversations or ever been paralyzed by fear when those moments arrive?
Feel like you missing too many conversations about faith because of lack of confidence?
Evangelism is a process that includes many conversations with a person on their spiritual journey to Christ.
But how do you start a conversation without being that obnoxious evangelist you have in mind? How can you meaningfully insert a question that would open the doors to deeper conversation?
