    Fastbreak: Are Your Service Times Optimal to Reach New People?

    In this episode, Dave Workman explores the art and science of changing the service times of your church. Whether you have one service each weekend or five, the question to tackle is: are your current times optimal for reaching new people? With a real-life coaching example, Dave advises a pastor in a large church to rethink their service times. And if they change them, how to communicate that to the congregation in a way that avoids negative factions of “church angst”.

    The Four Stages of Organizational Focus

    The Four Stages of Organizational Focus

    Every church and organization will move through different focuses throughout its lifespan. From the inception of a churchplant or new company, the particular areas that the organization needs to pay attention to shifts as it matures. In this Fastbreak episode, Dave Workman identifies and unpacks four unique stages of focus for an organization as it grows into a healthy, effective, and sustaining church or company: 1) Personality-focus, 2) Mission-focus, 2) Systems-focus, and 3) Franchise-focus.

    What’s Your Vibe? Reengineering Your First Impressions for New Visitors

    What’s Your Vibe? Reengineering Your First Impressions for New Visitors

    Every church—or any organization for that matter—has a vibe. It can be good, bad, indifferent, or whatever. But very few take stock of what it is…and even fewer are intentional about shaping it. If you’ve ever wondered why new people visit your church but rarely stick, it’s more than likely the vibe you're giving off. In this episode, our panel will take a hard look at how to assess the atmosphere of your church as well as offer practical ideas for changing your “first impressions”. Our panel this week includes regulars Paul Baldwin and Dave Workman along with newcomer Sarah Lau. Sarah is a Next Steps Director at Next Level Church, a large multi-campus church in the Fort Myers/Coral Gable area of Florida that specializes in creating high energy, welcoming environments for guests.

    Building the Beloved Community: an Interview with Dr. Charles Montgomery

    Building the Beloved Community: an Interview with Dr. Charles Montgomery

    In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the “beloved community” with Dr. Charles Montgomery. Framing a theological case for reconciliation, Dr. Montgomery describes the spectrum from denial to polarization to minimization to acceptance to adaptation, in which we move from a monocultural mindset to a Kingdom-oriented interculturalism. This, he asserts, is simply a part of discipleship. Besides being a pastor, spiritual director, and diversity consultant, Dr. Montgomery’s rich background includes a B.A. in Mathematics from Morehouse, a Master of Divinity from Emory University and a PhD in Ethical and Creative Leadership from Union Institute University.
