We’ve seen quite an influx in traffic the past week or so as we’ve explored church growth with our series Is Church Growth the Highway to Hell? So I thought it might help newcomers (and remind old timers) to give an overview of Church Marketing Sucks.
- Launched in 2004, Church Marketing Sucks is a part of the non-profit Center for Church Communication. They’re our more respectable parent organization that allows us to branch out and do more.
- Our goal is to frustrate, educate and motivate the church to communicate, with uncompromising clarity, the truth of Jesus Christ.
- You can read more about our mission or check out the links in the left sidebar under “read this first” for a good introduction.
- We encourage you to sign up for one of our e-mail newsletters and if you’re the RSS type we hope you’ll subscribe.
- The Center for Church Communication offers a few more resources in addition to this blog, including the Church Marketing Lab, a church marketing review group where you can share your work and offer feedback to others, the Events Lab, a public calendar of church marketing and communications related conferences, and more.
- If you want to support the work we’re doing, there are a number of ways you can help, including:
- Donate cash.
- Spread the word and tell your friends.
- Make Amazon.com purchases through our links (we get a small referral fee).
- Become a guest blogger.
- Volunteer to help out (Our ‘Ways I Can Help’ e-mail list is one way we get the word out about needs—and we plan to mention a slew of upcoming needs soon).
- And most importantly, pray. We don’t know everything, so we could use all the help we can get.
Thanks for being a part of the conversation.
