A Request from Church Communications Pro to You!
By
I can’t tell you how excited and blessed I am to be given this opportunity here at Church Communications Pro and to be able to explore new territory! I have all kinds of ideas jumping around in my head but I know that I am going to have to pace myself and learn some new skills and take time to do this right. I am going to share a bit of what I envision happening here at some point:
- Great interviews and Q & A Sessions with some really cool people from a variety of church backgrounds, visions, and skills. I love learning from others in the trenches and hope this will be a sweet addition.
- Pre-designed and Open Source products such as sermon branding kits, blog headers, website skins, connect cards, and more. I have stuff I have been working on for some time as well as have a few talented designers who will be contributing their stuff as well.
- Guest writers who will contribute excellent articles in their area of gifting or skill sets.
- Consulting for churches
- Sponsorship opportunities and additional resources
These are just a few ideas that I have, but what I am requesting is feedback from you, the Church Communications Pro readers. What are your suggestions for improving or building upon the foundation here? What would be beneficial for your church or ministry? How can I make CCP even better? Please think about providing your two cents to me personally or responding here in the comment section. I really appreciate it!
James:
I’ve got some ideas/products for your readers, as freebies and discounts on video pieces. Cory had posted a coupon a while back, and I’d like to continue with that sort of thing. If you’re interested, email me at:

Thanks, man. Looking forward to the new blog. Love the new look, so…so far, so good!
I’m keeping a record of your site because you’ve got a lot of good, and growing, resources. It’s obvious you’re willing to help fellow church leaders.
One suggestion is teaching people how to relate better to those outside of the church. Communication can be at completely different levels sometimes. I’ve seen to many people quote the bible and moralize, which falls on deaf ears.
Joshua,
Thanks and I appreciate your suggestion because churches have forgotten how to relate to people on the ‘outside’. I can tell you stories upon stories about how I observed this from an outsiders view personally and from my non-churched friends. It doesn’t mean become just like the world (as well as bring the world into churches – which will be a future post) but that we MUST go into it and be present without being judgmental!
