Episode 2.12
Programs can be a powerful tool for church ministry—but only when they serve the right purpose. In this episode, we look at how church programs help fulfill the biblical mission to glorify God through evangelism and edification. Drawing from Acts 2:42, Michael and Zach walk through the difference between faithful structure and fruitless tradition.
How can you tell when a program is working? When should a church retire a beloved ministry? We offer a framework for evaluating programs by their spiritual fruit and warn against the danger of “program idolatry”—when the method becomes more important than the mission. You’ll also hear encouragement to try new things in alignment with biblical priorities, and tips for fostering a culture of regular evaluation and prayerful adjustment.
Whether you’re a church leader or an engaged member, this episode offers practical wisdom for keeping your ministry focused, faithful, and fruitful.
