Episode 03: Communication with Kondo Simfukwe Fostering Church Podcast

The words we say are important. So is how we say them, when we say them and to whom we say them. They truly have the power to move people closer in or to push them further out. So, how do we as church leaders clearly articulate the call of God to care for children and families in foster care in such a way that people are drawn in? Not only from the pulpit, but through other communication mediums in our church as well. What structures must we consider putting in place to support our communication, so our people not only hear the call but are given clear pathways to respond to it? Questions like these, among others, are important ones for us as church leaders to consider as we take steps towards becoming more actively engaged in foster care.
