This week, we’re doing a very informal family episode. We’ve invited the 12:30 Media Lead Team to come and hang out today.
You’ll hear from the team as we reflect on this crazy past year and also look ahead to 2021.
We’ll talk about what we’ve seen in the churches we serve and how things are looking for next year.
5 Game Changing Ideas for 2021
1. Create your Worship Experiences for both your Physical and Digital attendees.
Online is here to stay. Keep growing Online and Social Presence.
Don’t withdraw resources from Online. Think Digital First.
Address / Acknowledge your Online Audience in the Physical Experience
Shoot Closer
Prepare your Teams – have intentional and strategic volunteer teams for Physical and Online
2. Take your Worship Experience Beyond Sunday.
Share Testimonies and Stories during the Week
Share Lyric Quotes from the Songs you Sang
Share Clips from Sunday’s Sermon
Recap Highlights from Sunday
Celebrate Volunteers
3. Be Intentional About your Web Presence.
Your website is your Front Door, Make a Good First Impression
Share any Website Resources
Use Video and Visuals on your Site
4. Cast a Clear, Compelling Vision.
People can follow where you Lead. Lead well
Focus on being Doctrinally Sound and Clear on where your church stands Biblically
Cast a Clear Vision on where your Church is headed this year
Be authentic
