Why We Don't Do Church Membership (New)
At Life.Church, one of our goals is to be spiritual contributors, not spiritual consumers. We've found, however, that church membership does not necessarily encourage this attitude in the most effective way. Instead, we believe that when people feel needed and known, they are drawn to engage and c...

Strategic Disruptions
The longer you do ministry, the easier it becomes to minister from memory. You tend to do what you've always done. It is safe, comfortable, and convenient. To stay spiritually and creatively fresh, I suggest “strategic disruptions.” To me, this is intentionally disrupting the routine, mundan...

Good Social Media or a Prideful Heart?
We know God opposes the proud. But some forms of social media seem to have redefined what pride is and what it’s not. For example: Imagine if I stood before our church and repeated things I had heard others say: “Joe Smith said, ‘Pastor Craig, you are the best preacher ever! Your sermons cha...

Kids Ministry: Creating Cohesion Across the Ages
Years ago, our early childhood, elementary, and youth teams created their own curriculums. They operated largely independent of each other and focused on different topics at different times. But after much research and strategizing, we realized we could be more effective if we aligned our st...

Be Unreasonable
I bet you have heard this many times: “be reasonable.” Truthfully, under many circumstances, “be reasonable” is sound advice—but not always. As Christian leaders, there are some times to be unreasonable. When you pray, you might ask God to do something most would consider impossible...

What the Church Should Learn from Google
Most of us would say Google is pretty big. Eighteen years after it launched its search engine, it is one of the top 10 most well-known brands in the world. But despite how big it’s become, Google’s leaders continue to think bigger. Instead of looking back at what they’ve accomplished, they look...

Behind the Message: How to Neighbor
How to Neighbor is more than a message series. It's a chance to start a movement in your community. Here at Life.Church, we believe this series can really impact communities around the world, so we created some extra initiatives and resources to help attenders really dig in to the hea...

3 Values that Lead to Evangelism
“How do I inspire my church to be involved in evangelism?” At Alpha , that’s the one question we most often hear from church leaders—and it’s an important one for a couple of reasons. First, if we mobilize our whole congregation to engage with their community, the message of Jesus will find its w...

Does the Size of Your Church Matter? (Part 4)
I love small businesses. I bought my only television from a local, small business. They delivered it, set it up, and called a week later to see how I liked it. Great service. I decided to get a second television so I could watch football while my kids watched whatever reality show they watch...
Online Ministry
Virtual Experience, Real Community
Church Online reaches a unique audience, and it comes with a unique set of tools and goals. While the Church Online Platform is versatile enough to accommodate many different ministry styles and technologies, here's how we approach our online ministry. Each of our online experiences...

An Outsider's Words Often Mean More
I see it as one of my biggest roles to encourage and strengthen our staff. Almost every time we gather, I remind them they are part of something special. But no matter how often I say it, it doesn’t mean as much as when an outsider tells them. We’ve been blessed to have Dr. Sam Chand, Ch...

Creating an illumiNations Campaign Strategy for Your Church
Imagine if you tried to share the Gospel with someone, and they couldn’t understand any of the Bible. This is a reality for more than a billion people who still don’t have a complete Bible in their language. And more than 165 million people don’t have even one Bible verse in their language. L...

Tips for Year-End Giving
It’s part of the natural rhythm of the year: giving tends to increase during the Christmas season. At Life.Church, we don’t take this for granted. We’re intentional about being humble and being good stewards of our resources, and that includes how we approach our tithing and giving communication at...
