Recently I asked my email list about their challenges with church communications. My goal was to get a list of pain points they were facing and questions that they needed answers for.
The list of questions amazed me.
After trying to figure out how best to provide answers, I decided the best way was to just start tackling them one question at a time.

While the bulletin is no longer a strategic option for every church, it continues to be for others.
If you’re still creating a weekly bulletin, don’t worry, you’re not alone. Here’s some ways to be strategic and ensure you have a successful church bulletin.
