I used to be a youth director, now I'm a worship leader. So what am I doing writing a blog about communication for churches? Working in a church for over 15 years I have seen how effective great communication can be. Unfortunately I have seen some examples too of poor communication, some of which have come out of my computer. But I have learned over the years from those who communicate effectively through different means, and through my own errors and successes how to use communication better.
I now serve our church in two roles, worship leader and communications director. I handle most of our communication avenues including website, facebook and printed magazine, along with occasional flyers, posters, videos and other means.
I do not pretend to know everything. What I do know is what I have picked up along this journey of mine. My goal is to share what I have learned with you, and in return learn from you.
Over the past few years I have been asked to lead a few local workshops covering things like newsletters, blogging, websites and social media. I hope to use those questions as the launching point for this blog. If I know the answer I'll share that. If I don't know the answer I'll try to find out. Along the way to I'll post any helpful links to articles, blogs and other communicators I have learned, or am learning from.
So with that introduction over let me ask you a question.
What is one area of communications that you feel your church does very well? Why?
