In the aftermath of the pandemic, many churches have struggled to reengage their communities—especially when it comes to volunteerism. But at our church, things look a little different.
I recently sat down with Barna to talk about how Grace Church has built a thriving volunteer culture that goes against national trends.
In the interview, I share the principles and practices that have helped shape Grace’s leadership model, including:
- The power of casting clear vision
- Treating volunteers like essential team members
- Creating roles with purpose, not just need
- Believing in the untapped potential sitting in every congregation
If you’re a pastor or church leader navigating this challenging season, you might enjoy this read.
