    Join our conversation with Kenny Jang, founder and CEO of the Big Click Syndicate and CEO and editor-in-chief of Church Tech Today, as we explore what it takes to cultivate and sustain a generous church. Kenny shares his personal journey from almost becoming a pastor to leveraging digital communication to help churches accomplish their mission and become more generous.

He underscores the importance of engaging volunteers and building meaningful connections, offering stories from his own experiences that beautifully illustrate these concepts. We also tackle the often-neglected topic of external funding and dive deep into ways to build trust and respect between the church and its donors.

    By embracing technology, churches can create more impactful services and further their reach. Kenny walks us through the potential of AI in the church space, making the case for the power of technology in spreading the Gospel. He shares his experiences in the Facebook community, AI for Church Leaders, where hundreds are learning and exchanging notes on leveraging AI in ministry. As we wrap up our conversation, Kenny leaves us with ideas on maximizing the impact of year-end giving campaigns and where to find him online.

  • Leading Through Crisis - Pastor Jim Sheldon
    Aug 6 2023

    Imagine leading a church in the midst of a devastating wildfire, grappling with the emotionally charged process of staff layoffs, and battling the financial and logistical challenges of a pandemic. That's the reality that our guest, Pastor Jim Sheldon of Mission Church in Ventura, California, navigated with courage, humility, and a steadfast faith. Join us as Pastor Jim shares his extraordinary journey, the highs and the lows, from his career switch from a loan officer to pastor, to his leadership during the Thomas Fires of 2017, where Mission Church transformed into a hub for disaster relief efforts.

    When disaster strikes, how do you connect those yearning to help with those desperately needing it? Pastor Jim gives us an inside look into this process, revealing how Mission Church morphed from a shelter into a distribution center in the blink of an eye. He recounts the poignant story of church closures and layoffs, managing the emotional fallout with grace, and nurturing resilience within the church community. We also discuss the practicalities of launching a new campus and the financial logistics involved.

    In the midst of crisis and change, how does one maintain a "church planting mentality" when it comes to stewardship of resources? Pastor Jim's thoughts might change your approach to your church's finances. He also shares how Mission Church pivoted their financial strategies and staff management during the pandemic. Through an inspiring journey of faith and leadership, Pastor Jim imparts lessons on leadership, stewardship, and resilience.
