When COVID-19 hit, many churches and leaders found themselves stuck in a chaos cycle. Our systems, rhythms, and communication got infinitely more complicated, and what worked before isn’t necessarily working anymore.
It’s time to rethink communication and leverage the greatest opportunities we’ve ever had to communicate in the church.
Join Phil Bowdle, a leading national voice in the area of church communications and author of “Rethink Communication: A Playbook to Clarify and Communicate Everything in Your Church”, for this practical conversation on Saturday, March 5 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for one of the most important issues facing the church today. You’ll walk away with a playbook of practical ideas, strategies, and resources that will spark engagement and more effective communication in your church.
Here is an overview of what Phil will share:
Session 1: Moving From Reactive to Proactive Communications

reactive to proactive with your communications.
Session 2: Building A Social Media Plan
Discover what’s changed in social media, and walk through a step-by-step playbook to build a social media plan for your church.
