111: How to Redesign Your Ministry to Last: An Interview with Reggie Joiner
The Think Orange Podcast
The mission of the church is timeless and will never change. The church exists to show the world who God is. But, if we aren’t willing to make some changes in our churches and our ministries we will actually lose influence, trust, and relevance, so we won’t accomplish our mission. That’s why it’s important to redesign our ministries to last. In this episode, Reggie Joiner unpacks what that means and why your strategy matters.

info_outlineKids are, if nothing else, a growing and changing group. As they move from babies to toddler, from preschoolers to elementary schoolers, and from middle schoolers to high schoolers, their needs and interests move right along with them. It can get a little complicated.
And so, church leaders become specialists in the age groups they serve. You may know everything there is to know about today’s thirteen-year-old. And that’s awesome. But if you’re not building a bridge between yourself and the people who work with students before and after you, you’re missing out on a big opportunity.
Today’s episode dives right into that opportunity--with advice on how you can create a program designed to take kids from birth to graduation seamlessly and with purpose. You’ll hear from Autumn Ward, author of the First Look devotional series and a writer for the preschool First Look curriculum, and Cindy Fiala, a consultant working to help churches do exactly what we’re talking about here.
Welcome to Episode 66 of the Think Orange Podcast.
