Strategic Planning in the Church

The Table podcast covers strategic planning and mission in the church this week. Many churches get set into a routine and move from week to week with no clear long term goals. How does a church move past that kind of routine? Aubrey Malphurs discusses this on our podcast over the next two weeks. He also covers how important planning and developing leadership is. I think it is a very useful discussion.

Let me know what you think of what he says.

In particular, it is developing leadership that sometimes is lacking. What kind of a program do pastors have for encouraging growth and involvement of capable people in their church? How do churches plan in ways that moves the church into growth for its membership? How do they get momentum for outreach? These are the kinds of question Aubrey and I discuss. I think you will find the discussion insightful.
