218 | Revolutionizing Church Leadership: Strategies for Healthy Congregations and Efficient Management

Are you ready to revolutionize your approach to church leadership? With us on this journey are Scott Holthaus & Kacie Frazier from Ministry Brands, who are charging the way in fostering healthy leadership within churches. They'll be sharing their expertise on harnessing the power of digital tools to grow and sustain a healthy congregation. The state of a leader can often be mirrored in their church, so we're bringing the focus back to nurturing the well-being of church leaders.Changing gears, we delve into the idea of outward-focus and its intrinsic link to church health. It's time to reassess how we measure the health of our churches and adopt an impactful strategy of "eliminate, delegate, automate, and invest". It's all about reclaiming your time, taking advantage of tools and AI to automate tasks, and redirecting that saved time into self-learning, community building, and further delegation. And lastly, we don't shy away from the nitty-gritty. Let's tackle the cultural pressures church leaders face head-on, from combating the worldly noise to preventing burnout and isolation. Here, we challenge the enemy's lies that can discourage leaders and offer ways to uplift them. And to help even further, we introduce you to the Healthy Church Hub from Ministry Brands, a treasure trove of resources for church leaders. Hear from Scott and Kacie on how to overcome these obstacles, equipped with practical strategies to cultivate healthier leaders and, consequently, healthier churches.
