The message below came from TCN member Gary Stone, Business Administrator at First Baptist Church of Marble Falls, Texas. This is just one of many such stories. Gary, thanks for sharing your story with us.

It takes a lot to cancel church in the shiny Bible Belt stronghold of Houston, Texas, home to more megachurches than any city in America. Specifically, 9 trillion gallons of rain in a weekend. Hurricane Harvey shut down Sunday services from downtown to the sprawling suburbs, where churches replaced typical worship gatherings with sermon videos posted on Facebook or simply messages to stay safe.

Church presentations can add a lot to a worship service. The song lyrics on a screen help people look up instead of burying their heads in a book as they sing praises to the Lord. A well-designed announcement graphic can help attendees learn about important events or information they need. Preachers can communicate more effectively if they use more than one form of media to share the message of the Word of God. However, this will all grind to a halt without someone to control the presentation during the church service.

When they couldn’t get inside the building, they literally climbed onto the roof, made a hole, and lowered their friend into the room."

While leadership does not need to be an either/or proposition, how others perceive your leadership might surprise you.
