In this final episode of our Simple Shifts series, Tony and Amy are discussing shifts related to our strategies, including our Sunday services, sermons, and multi-generational ministries.

In the first episode of our new series, we discussed what does not need to change in the new normal. But the series is called Simple Shifts for a reason–we do believe there are some things you need to consider changing.

Major disruptions over the last few years have left many pastors wondering if how they do ministry needs a dramatic overhaul. But what if rather than a total transformation, there were smaller changes we could make that will lead to greater impact?

“Do we really need to become a completely different church for the new normal?”

In our work with churches and pastors across the country, we’re hearing this question again and again. And the answer is a partial yes—some change is required to effectively engage our culture in this new normal. 

However, a lot of the “new” that is needed for this new normal involves simple shifts that don’t require for us to become a completely different church. Join us starting on April 6 for the four-week "Simple Shifts" series.
