Is Your Church Program Relevant?
Writing this post may be one of the dumbest things I've ever done.
I am the president of the world's largest Christian resource company, and I'm talking about the problems with church programs.
I must be out of my mind.
To be fair, this article does not blame church programs per se. But it does speak about the problems or dangers with programs if we lose our focus on their purpose. Unfortunately, such a loss of focus has taken place in tens of thousands of churches.
A church program is a resource that has content already created, ready for use by churches. Sometimes the program can be short-term like vacation Bible school. At other times, it can be ongoing, such as Sunday school or small group curriculum.
But, without good oversight and wise application, these and other programs can be problematic.
