The number one hospitality faux pas, as reported by first-time visitors, is that "Nobody spoke to me." Of course, most of the time that's not really accurate. Someone probably said, "Good morning" as the guest walked from front door to the pews. Instead, what the visitor is really saying is, "No one took the time to have a conversation with me. I was essentially ignored." Which in many churches – more than we'd care to admit – is probably true.
In this episode, Drs. Kris and Bill talk about three ways to make sure your first-time visitors feel welcomed, noticed, and important.

Hebrews 3:13 reminds us to encourage one-another daily. Daily. Meaning every day. But when was the last time someone from your church picked up the phone and called you just to ask how they could pray for you? Or how they could help you in your spiritual walk? In this episode, Drs. Kris and Bill de-mystify the encouragement vacuum to help you and your congregation move from apathy to caring for one-another ... and how this can help grow your church.

Almost every church – regardless of size – "says" that it wants to grow. If a church is large, or even medium-sized, you probably have the resources so that if you're not growing much, no one's hit Panic Mode yet. That's not the case for many – if not most – small churches. And when a small church hits the Panic Button, then survival mode kicks in. And that's not a pretty sight. In this episode, Drs. Kris and Bill have a lively conversation about three crucial factors that keep small churches small.

In this episode – and the next two – Dr. Bill has a lively discussion about some things you can do to increase your first-time visitor count.
