Synopsis:

It’s a challenging time for churches. Congregations are getting older and attendance is dwindling. Every week there are fewer people in the pews. It’s not so much that there are fewer total members, it’s that members are attending less often. Here’s why. When we see someone we haven’t seen for a long time, it’s common to ask, “What’s been going on?” Most often the answer is something like, “Oh, just busy, you know.” And of course, we do know. We’re working longer hours, the kids have soccer practice and music lessons and birthday parties - aging parents require more care, we have errands to run, our homes demand cleaning and maintenance - and on and on it goes. The pace of our lives is staggering, exhausting and too often, overwhelming. It’s no wonder it’s harder than ever for people to get to church as often as they once did. Our congregations face pressing questions: How do we communicate with members? How do we keep them connected and engaged even though they’re present far less often than they once were? How do we make absolutely sure members continue to feel like they belong? Technology can help. Today we have some tools that when used properly can create and enhance a profound sense of belonging in our members. The Technology Tools Every Church Needs, provides straight talk and simple solutions for pastors and church leaders interested in using technology to strengthen their congregations and advance their ministries. In this book, you’ll discover: * How to Get a Great Website for a Few Dollars Per Month * The 5 Things Your Public Website Must Include * Technology That Can Increase Average Weekly Attendance * The Best Way to Use Facebook for Your Church (And what to avoid) * How to Keep Members Involved After They Leave the Building * Why Email Isn’t Enough - How to Communicate Effectively With Your Members * A Tool Guaranteed to Increase Prayer * The Secret to Fulfilling Your Volunteer Needs * A Simple Way to Find Out Exactly What Members Want and Need
