How do we measure success? Are metrics important? Where is the Holy Spirit in a world where data is king? Look, we know the rules of engagement have changed. Nickels and noses may be solid metrics, but they can’t be the only metrics. And this really begins to scratch the surface. What are we, the church, actually trying to achieve here.
Into the conversation, let’s bring Craig Whitney, VP of Planter Development at Stadia. Who better to speak to the effectiveness of churches than the leader of the group who is effectively training the next generation of pastors. Also in the conversation is Jared Roth, who is quickly becoming one of my (Jeff’s) favorite people. Why is Jared awesome? Well, you’re going to have to listen to the podcast and find out.
Defining success, and more clarity around a multimodal church. All this here on The Church Digital Podcast.
