Pride can be a sneaky temptation, especially for church communicators who might forget the true source of their success. In this episode, I discuss the dangers of pride and how it can creep into our work, particularly as we navigate the evolving landscape of church communications. Drawing from several powerful biblical passages, I'll highlight the importance of humility and the need to focus on the mission rather than the medium. We often get caught up in the aesthetics of our communications, but what truly matters is whether they lead people to know Jesus and grow in their faith. Join me as we explore how to keep our hearts aligned with God’s purpose in our work, reminding ourselves that it’s not about our skills or tools, but about reaching and serving those in need.

Takeaways:

1. Pride is a subtle temptation that can undermine the real purpose of church communications, which is to connect people with God.
2. The quality of church communication should be measured by its impact on spiritual growth, not just by aesthetic appeal or professional design.
3. In church communications, meeting the needs of the congregation is paramount, regardless of the quality of design or production.
4. Even simple communications can lead to significant spiritual impact when they focus on bringing people closer to Jesus.
5. It's essential for church communicators to remember that their effectiveness is rooted in humility and service, not in pride or superior skills.
