Church SOS, Part 3: The Benefits of Examining Your Church's Facilities and Programs Through the Eyes of a First-Time Visitors
In this episode of Advancing the Cause, we dive into the vital practice of evaluating your church's facilities and programs from the perspective of a first-time visitor. Often, church leaders and members are so familiar with their surroundings that they overlook small details that can significantly impact newcomers' experiences. Join us as we explore the benefits of taking a step back, walking through your church as if it's your first time, and identifying areas for improvement in hospitality, accessibility, and overall appeal. Whether it’s the signage, the children's program setup, or the layout of the worship space, this episode will provide practical tips and insights to help your church make a lasting first impression. Tune in for advice on creating an inviting environment that encourages visitors to come back and become a part of your church!
