Podcast Episode 0.2: Church Marketing Part 3

Matt — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 12:00:02 +0000

This episode proves the third time is not the charm. I think this is our worst podcast thus far, so if you have better things to do, skip it. We thought about not posting it at all, but in the spirit of transparency, authenticity, and not yet having the next podcast ready to go, here it is.

In this episode (22 MB, 19:34 minutes):

Church bulletins
Church signs
Creativity
Defining success

Marketing as an Anti-Missional Practice

In the podcast that debuted in spectacular fashion on Saturday I made the assertion that church marketing is by nature an anti-missional practice. Mission sends people out. Marketing seeks to bring people in. The two are at odds with one another. Makes sense, doesn’t it?

So, if you want to be a missional church, cut your marketing budget and use that money to send people out to minister in the community.
