The Trend Your Church Can’t Ignore

Knowledge has never been more accessible. With AI, social media, and digital content everywhere, people can find answers in seconds. But despite this, loneliness is at an all-time high.

In this episode, I dive into the growing tension between knowledge and community—and why churches have an incredible opportunity if they communicate this well.

I also share why I dropped the price of the Healthy Communications Ministry Blueprint and why I’m investing in building a stronger Skool group—because information alone isn’t enough. True transformation happens in community.

If your church wants to cut through the noise and meet people where they are, this conversation is for you.

How do you adjust your work as ministry seasons shift?

This week, we’re diving into the three ministry paces every church creative navigates: deep seasons, fast seasons, and balanced seasons. I’ll share how understanding these rhythms can improve your skills, help you prioritize projects, and avoid frustration when expectations clash with reality.

We’ll also explore how to determine when to go deep, when to rely on templates, and how to balance creativity with speed. Tune in to learn how aligning your work with your church’s pace can lead to healthier, more effective creative ministry.

What’s your question about communications?

As a church creative, I’ve been through my share of Christmas chaos: long hours, last-minute changes, and the overwhelming pressure to get everything done perfectly. But what I’ve learned through seasons like this is that not all rest is created equal.

In this episode, I share what I’ve learned about the seven areas of rest and how they’ve helped me stay healthy and effective in ministry. This isn’t about a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s about recognizing the areas where you need rest the most. Whether it’s stepping back from sensory overload or finding ways to restore your creative well, understanding how to rest intelligently is one way you can maintain health through Christmas.

This conversation is part of what I teach in the Healthy Creative Ministry Cohort, designed to help church creatives like you find ways to love what you do and last in ministry. If you’re feeling overwhelmed this Christmas, this episode is for you.

7 types of rest—physical, creative, spiritual, emotional, sensory, social, and mental.

No System is good enough mechanically to overcome incompatibility with culture.

This week on the podcast we jump into the traits your systems need in order to be healthy. The four traits of healthy systems are:

• Transparent
• Proactive
• Human
• Culturally compatible

What’s your question about communications?

Systems are a critical piece of success in church communications. If you have too many, you'll make life difficult for the ministry leaders you work with. If you have too few, your life will be chaos.

This week on the podcast, we'll talk through the four areas your systems need to manage. These four systems provide the structure you need for success:
- Intake
- Clarity
- Delegation
- Output

What’s your question about communications?

Systems are the mechanics of getting things done in your organization. There are two indicators that your systems need work–you are consistently missing deadlines in your work or you have become the bottleneck in your organization.

In order to evaluate your systems effectively, you need to start by asking how you are contributing to the problems you are experiencing. Once you have clarity there, you can begin making smart adjustments to your Systems.

This week on the podcast we dig into the difference between imagination and innovation. Often confused, but very much not the same. If we get the balance wrong, we'll actually make our message much harder to hear.
