They focused on personal relational evangelism, providing tools and resources for their members to reach out to their 'ones' (people they are praying for). They also emphasized the importance of early entrance opportunities to serve and avoiding cul-de-sacs by keeping new attendees spiritually moving. The conversation concludes with practical next steps for church leaders, including thinking like a church planter and starting small with a core group of members to invest in relationships.Thanks for listening to this episode of the Intentional Churches podcast!Intentional Churches: Website: https://intentionalchurches.com The Book: https://a.co/d/hFlz17C YouTube: www.youtube.com/@IntentionalChurches Facebook: https://facebook.com/intentionalchurches LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/intentional-churches/mycompany/ Instagram: https://instagram.com/IntentionalChurches X/Twitter: https://x.com/intentchurches Blog: https://intentionalchurches.com/blog/ Cornerstone Christian Church:Website: https://onecornerstone.org/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/OneCornerstoneOnline Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/onecornerstone Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/onecornerstone/ Blog: https://onecornerstone.org/blog Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Overview of Church Goals00:37 Chris Vandelinde's Background and Church Experience01:09 Current Challenges and Approaches in Church Leadership02:31 The Role of Big Events in Church Engagement07:04 Strategies for Post-Event / Easter Engagement13:21 The Importance of Relational Evangelism19:09 Integrating Newcomers Post-Easter / Events24:08 Concluding Thoughts and Practical Steps for Church Leaders","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/smAwUgxq6qqLJDPHm-fVts5bjtUHttHCDUNOwZdqKHc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80ZTJm/ZGE1ZjNhMTBhMDkz/M2EwOTQ4Y2Y2YzRl/NjVkOS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
