- On today's show, I get real.
Real passionate about Facebook Live.
Well,
hey there, Pro Church Nation.
Welcome to The Ask Brady Show,
the show where you send in your questions
on church communications,
digital media, and the like,
and we answer them.
We take your questions,
and we give you the answers you're looking for.
But you know,
sometimes it's not the answer you're looking for.
- No.
- Sometimes we tell you the hard truth.
- Somebody's gotta do it.
- Wow, truth.
I'm here again with Roxanne,
director of member success at Pro Church Tools.
Roxanne and I are both wearing some kind of shade of red.
- We are.
- You know why?
'Cause Canada is the greatest nation on Earth.
- Yes.
- Oh.
I wanted to start singing the Canadian national anthem,
but the song in my head was...
(vocalizes)
Which is Star Wars, and not the Canadian national anthem.
That was a terrible version of Star Wars.
I switched keys.
- I couldn't even figure out what you were talking about.
(vocalizes)
- Much better.
- Yeah, that makes sense. - Not nice the first time.
Do not play back what I did the first time.
(laughs)
Okay, let's segue,
and less of Brady singing, more of Brady answering.
Let's jump into the first question.
- So the first question
comes from Shaun.
Shaun says,
"Should churches have dedicated social media accounts
"for different groups in the church?
"Youth, for example.
"Should they have their own Insta account?
"Or is it better to keep everything in one place
"so that the whole church can connect together
"and keep up with what everyone is doing?"
- Okay, so the first distinction that I like to make
in these instances
is, does the ministry that you're considering
having its own Facebook page for,
does it have its own service
apart from what happens on Sunday?
So youth, which,
what's the name?
- Shaun.
- Shaun, Shaun mentioned youth,
which is perfect,
because often, most usually,
youth have their own service apart from Sunday.
So when we were growing up, we went to the same youth group.
Roxanne, Brady, Jonas behind the camera.
Jonas, say hi.
- [Jonas] Hi!
- We all went to the same youth group.
We'd have church on Sundays.
Youth was on Friday.
So if you have a ministry that has its own service,
not its own meeting,
its own service,
that would be what we usually use
as the distinguishing factor
for what deserves its own set of social media pages.
Youth is a good one.
Young adults is a good one.
Kids, no,
because it always happens during the Sunday service.
If it's happening during the Sunday service,
if your youth group always meets on Sundays,
doesn't get its own page.
And that's the distinguishing factor that we make,
because if you're having your own service,
yeah, it's in the same building,
but it's its entirely own thing.
If your kids' ministry
or if your youth meet on Sundays,
probably the only reason they're there
is because their parents are bringing them.
Definitely the case for kids.
And so that's usually what we use
as the distinguishing factor.
Was there any additional nuance in that question about...
Oh, he talked about...
Just the goodness
of having everything a part of,
for the church? - Right, in one place.
- Right, right.
And it's like when we went to youth group.
We went to youth,
and then we also went to church on Sundays.
Now, that's not the case for everyone,
but when you have two different services,
it's okay to have both.
What you don't want to do
is start getting into,
the men's ministry have their page,
your church has the page,
women's ministry, kids, youth,
young adults, regular adults,
getting-to-be-old adults,
senior adults, almost dead adults,
and then you're in trouble, right?
Too many Facebook pages,
and everybody's an admin.
Then you're getting like 85 notifications
from the eight demographics of adults.
And so,
there is a distinction also to be made
between Facebook groups and Facebook pages.
We're talking about front-facing Facebook pages
that anyone can go like.
So let's use Engage Church as an example.
So there's Engage Church.
(clears throat) Pardon me.
The actual church, they have a page.
Let's say there's Engage Students,
the youth group that meets on Friday nights.
They have a page.
Let's say there's Engage Young Adults.
They have a service on Saturday nights.
Then you also have the men's ministry,
women's ministry, kids' ministry.
Maybe some other things.
Let's use those three as an example, though.
They do not have their own service.
Kids meet during Sundays.
So do men and women.
Now, men and women ministries,
I'll hit on this again,
they have their own events,
but they're not their own services.
I just want to be very clear on that.
That's the distinguishing factor.
So with those three ministries,
you can have Facebook groups for those if you wanted.
These are private groups that you have to ask
to be a part of,
and you could use those groups
for all of the ministry's internal communications,
announcing of events,
keeping everyone up to date.
They don't even need the page, though.
Let it be a private group.
So that's the rule that we use to make that distinction.
Again, we always talk about this on Ask Brady.
It's good to have these rules, right?
Because if you start making arbitrary decisions on the fly,
say,
give them their own page, why not?
Then what happens is,
Sheila, it's always Sheila,
Sheila shows up, and she goes,
oh, interesting.
The men's ministry got their own page.
I'm gonna need the women's ministry
to also have their own page.
And you're like, what have I done?
Right?
So if you have these rules in place,
these guidelines that you're saying, you know what?
You gotta be this tall to ride the rollercoaster.
That's the analogy we use.
These are the criteria that need to be met.
You gotta be this tall to ride the rollercoaster.
Then you're not the bad guy.
You can just blame the rollercoaster.
- It's true.
- Truth.
- Alright.
Question two comes from Hunter.
Hunter says, "Hey, Brady.
"I was wondering, how do you feel
"about bulletins/handouts at church?
"My church's bulletin is definitely outdated
"and I want to propose a new look.
"With any change there will be drawbacks,
"so my second question is how do you present it
"in a way that will be appealing to all demographics?"
- Let's address the final sentence of that question,
which is, how do I make this that's appealing
to all demographics?
The fact that we all need to accept
is that everyone hates change.
Nobody likes change, right?
Any time something different happens,
we feel uncomfortable.
It's unfamiliar.
It's not the way it used to be,
and we don't like it.
This happens all the time
when something is working,
and then it begins to not work,
and we get romantic about the way things used to be.
I'm an incredibly nostalgic person,
so I don't want to sit on my horse
and pretend that I'm immune to this,
because I am not.
But let's first come to this conversation
and come to this question
knowing that any time we make a big change,
especially a change that's gonna affect
primarily the older demographic of your church
that's been doing things for longer,
that has been here longer,
so they're even more prone to getting upset
and romantic about the way things used to be,
let's just recognize that likely,
it's impossible to make everyone happy.
We shouldn't make a decision
based on the premise that this will be a successful decision
if everyone is happy.
Because what you don't want to do
is become a people pleaser.
That's not gonna help you make good decisions.
So let's talk about the bulletin.
We are currently in the process of developing something,
a brand new project,
that I first came up with actually on a flight to Atlanta.
I was flying with a member of the team here, Tristan,
to speak at a conference,
and just doing my thing on an airplane,
listening to podcasts,
and I suddenly had to stop the podcast from playing
because I started having this idea,
this idea of this singular central hub for churches
where everyone could come
and every single next step
would be housed in this singular convenient location,
giving message notes, calendar,
ministry sign-up, event registration.
Basically a bulletin that didn't cost anything to print,
was available 24/7 online
through a singular website URL,
didn't get thrown in the trash,
didn't require ink and maintenance costs
and the freakin' folding,
because you gotta trifold,
and you know how impossible it is
to get the trifold correct,
and then one part is overlapped a little bit more
than the other part,
and when you're OCD like me, Roxanne,
you lose it.
And then you just start ripping bulletins.
You get fired from church,
all because...
The bulletin.
That's a true story.
No, but it's a hypothetical that I know has happened before.
(laughs)
And so we recognize that this is a pain point
for a lot of churches.
And we're creating something,
gonna be launched in April 2017,
that will fix this.
But let's talk about bulletins right now.
The question at the beginning was...
- What are your thoughts on having them?
- Just the existence whatsoever.
- The existence of bulletins. - Okay, great.
So, well, let's talk about the cons of bulletins.
They require assembly and distribution every single week.
So you've got to print them.
That's gonna cost money,
so let's add that as the second con.
They also cost money to print.
You either have to outsource them
and pay someone,
or you have to have a printer in house.
Those printers are expensive.
And you've got to put the toner in them.
Also expensive.
Then you also have to think, okay, wait.
So the prep and the production of them,
costly, not efficient with time.
Do they get used well?
Well, there's probably a portion of your church,
if you're currently using a bulletin,
that does enjoy them.
That portion is also likely small and dwindling.
That's the key here, right?
Because we want to make decisions
that are gonna be for the future,
for the years to come.
We don't always want to make decisions
about how it is right here and now.
So let's say you have a church
that leans towards an older demographic.
Maybe 50% of your church loves the bulletin.
But that demographic is shrinking.
They're getting older, and it's shrinking.
And so we're gonna be moving more and more away
from paper bulletins, I imagine.
With that being said, I do like physical cards
and the availability of physical material at a church.
If you're already at church,
you've done the work of getting in your car,
you've driven, you've found a parking spot,
you've walked into sanctuary, you've found your seat.
It is nice to have tactile materials there.
So I'm not the type of person that's like,
everything digital, nothing physical.
And that might be a surprise to some,
because we're building a 100% digital tool
that would replace a bulletin in many ways.
So I like the hybrid approach.
It's interesting that this question came up today,
because just today,
I was doing some research on how much bulletins cost
for the average church,
and I got about 50 responses,
and based on what people were saying,
is they said, okay, per bulletin,
it costs about $0.25.
That only includes what they're paying,
so if they have a printer,
that does not include maintenance costs,
it doesn't include toner and ink,
and whether they're buying it from someone
or doing it themselves,
it doesn't include the assembly and distribution of them.
So when I kinda calculated in all that,
I was, okay, it's $0.25 per bulletin.
Let's add in another $0.25 for cost of the machine,
cost of maintenance,
ink and toner,
shipping if you're buying it from someone else,
and the distribution and man hours of assembling it, right?
So let's say it's $0.50 per bulletin.
The average church size, let's say is 100,
let's be very, very conservative,
150 people.
$0.50 per bulletin...
Whoops.
$75 per week.
Times that by 52 weeks in the year.
Divide it by 12.
$325 per month
on freaking bulletins.
Every church that works with us on video announcements,
sorry, 80% of the churches that work with us
pay less for video announcements every single week.
They get four highly-produced videos
produced by a professional agency
for less than the paper bulletins that you are printing.
So, strategy moving forward.
If you know that a portion of your church
loves the bulletin,
don't feel that you need to get rid of it.
What I would do is,
I would never, ever, ever
print the same number of bulletins
of the people that attend your church.
If you have 150 people attending your church,
do not print 150 bulletins.
What you want to do is experiment
and find the number of bulletins that you can print
that will actually get taken and used.
So I you know that 50 bulletins will get taken
and you're always like, we print too many,
find that number.
Don't print to expand to the size of your church.
Print a limited amount
and then react to how many are actually being used.
So takeaways from this question:
are bulletins useless?
Mostly.
Do we need to get rid of print altogether,
the tactile materials in our churches?
I don't think so.
I like the hybrid approach,
the both/and, not the either/or.
How can we make this work?
Well, if we're spending $325 per month on bulletins,
and that's just rough.
Your church probably isn't spending that exact amount.
It's less or more.
What we should do is spend less on that
and more on the digital side of things.
Nucleus is gonna cost less than $100 per month.
For when we do the launch, it's gonna be way less than that.
And so to think that, oh, okay,
we can get Nucleus, which is infinitely scalable,
digital bulletin-ish,
and so much more for 1/6 of the price
of the amount we're paying for bulletins
at a church of 150 people.
There are much more cost-effective
and efficient ways of doing it.
Both/and, not either/or.
Scale back on the bulletins.
Scale up on the digital.
- I just actually have a follow-up question
to that question. - Love it.
- So you're saying tactile things.
You're talking like connect cards
and tithing envelopes or whatever.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Maybe, like, and information about your church
or something like that.
- Yeah, so our church has the connection card
for the new visitors.
It's got the giving card.
Here's why we give.
Here's why it's important at church.
A lot of new visitors are like,
why are churches always trying to get my money?
Explain why do we give,
here are the ways that you can give.
I think we also have,
we might have giving envelopes.
I'm thinking maybe not, though.
So we definitely have the giving card
and the connection card,
and then our church used to have,
we transitioned a long time ago
from digital bulletins to the monthly magazine,
which churches have done,
and last year, we even ditched that,
and it was a beautiful magazine.
When I attended this church for the first time,
I was like, guys, this magazine is gorgeous!
A month later, they discontinued it,
'cause they were, like, yeah, no one uses it, though!
- Alright, so the third question
comes from Ray.
Ray says,
"Can you talk about a specific procedure you recommend
"with communicating to first time guests
"once you've received their contact information?
"Specifically within the first 24 to 48 hours,
"within the first week, and so on.
"Thanks, and I hope to hear your ideas."
- Great, so we did a podcast
with Tyler Smith, I think his name is.
And he runs, Tyler Smith?
- [Roxanne] I can't remember.
- Tyler Smith, let's do a quick search.
- [Roxanne] Text-To-Give?
- Yeah, the guy from Text-To-Give.
Sorry, Tyler, for not remembering your last name.
Seems kind of jerkish on my part.
Thyler?
That's not a name, Google!
Oh, Google corrected to Pro Church Tools Tyler,
and I wrote Pro Church Tools Thler.
Not Tyler, there's no Y.
Thler.
- If it is Smith, at least it's a common last name.
- Guys, Pro Church Tools is on Google.
- What does that even mean?
Oh, yeah.
Brandon did that the other day.
- There's a picture of our office.
We have one review.
One star, no, five stars.
(laughs)
- Half a star.
- It says we're open 24 hours.
Seems...
- Excessive.
- It seems a little enthusiastic.
(laughs)
- If you come here in the middle of the night,
we will not be here.
- I did send you a slack at 11:30 last night,
and I was like...
(growls)
'Cause something came to my mind.
I was lying in bed, - That's true.
- and I was like, oh, man, dang our office looks great.
- That's why I turn off my notifications at night.
- Own this business?
I do own this business.
Oh, it's asking me,
okay, we can do this later.
(laughs) Okay, Tyler Smith, got it.
So we have this podcast,
ProChurchTools.com/116.
It was the 116th session,
called Five Ways to Follow Up with New Visitors.
And Tyler has this great process for following up,
and it's this five-step process.
And he details it, and it's like a 40-minute conversation.
So if you want to take this one step deeper
than the answer I'm about to give,
check that out: ProChurchTools.com/116.
Jonas will link it in the show notes.
It'll be there if you're watching on YouTube.
Okay, so let's first come to this question
knowing that if someone attends your church,
you've done a ton of work likely
to get that person there.
You were doing digital or physical marketing,
it was word of mouth,
someone found you via SEO,
someone heard good things about you.
I guess that's word of mouth, right?
Whatever it is, either your culture or your efforts
have done a good job of getting someone there.
What you don't wanna do, then,
is then be like, well, we got him here.
We did it. - Good job.
- Because people don't just come back automatically
to church anymore, right?
So what you do actually
after someone's attended church for the first time
is gonna have a huge determining factor
about whether or not that they actually do come back.
Whether or not they become
a fully integrated member of your church community.
And so first of all, you need to know,
if we don't have a strategy, we're in trouble.
And that's what's great about this question from Ray.
He recognizes okay, we need a strategy.
So first thing I would do
is we know this when we do marketing online.
When someone comes to us for the first time,
whether they find us through SEO,
through Google.
They land on something like,
we rank really high on Google for a lot of search terms,
or if they find us through paid advertisement,
like Facebook ads,
when they find us for the first time,
that's when they are most excited about us
and what we're offering them.
Never again likely will they be more excited about us
than right now.
So what you need to do
is strike while the iron is hot.
Is that how that saying goes?
The pan is hot?
- No, it's while the iron's hot.
I'm assuming it has something to do
with those old-fashioned actual iron irons,
but I don't know.
- Like ironing clothes, or like cast iron,
like you're making food?
- I thought it was ironing clothes,
but I don't know.
- Strike while the iron is hot.
Is the iron like--
- Oh, you know what it is?
I know what it is.
- We figured it out?
- Yeah.
Well, I don't know for sure,
'cause I haven't Googled it,
but I think it must be referring to
when you brand animals.
- Wow.
Strike while the iron is hot.
Yeah, because you're not gonna put Pro Church--
- I'm probably gonna look so stupid
'cause it's not actually the answer. (laughs)
- I'm gonna go with that.
If I'm gonna brand a cattle as Pro Church Tools,
I gotta do it like, right?
- While it's hot. - I gotta pull it
out of the freaking coals and--
- 'Cause otherwise you have to hold it forever.
- Truth.
We figured it out.
It's kind of more gross.
Now I wished I used a different analogy.
- It's a pretty common saying, though,
so people would...
Like, people know what you're saying.
- Jonas, you're shaking your head.
- [Jonas] No, it's when you're like,
you know like The Hobbit,
they're making the swords?
- Yeah.
- [Jonas] You can only mold it while it's hot.
So strike when the iron's hot.
- Strike when the iron's hot.
So not cattle, swords.
But you were close, because it wasn't--
- We keep getting close.
- I was like, cast iron.
I'm like, yeah, we're making an omelet.
Strike when the iron's hot!
(laughs)
- Gotta get those vegetables in the pan real fast.
- Point being,
you've got someone who's really excited about your church,
so excited that they came all the way
and went through the difficulties and the efforts
to actually show up to a service.
So what you wanna do is follow up right away.
Whatever you do use as your strategy,
and check out that session of the Pro Church Podcast,
session 116, to get specifics,
you want to respond quickly.
So don't wait 48 hours.
I think it's cool to send something.
This is what's great about Nucleus
if you have a digital connection card.
You can send something automatically.
You get the digital connection card,
trigger something within three hours.
But what you definitely wanna do
is within 24 hours, get them something.
So they're there on Sunday,
send them something on Monday
while it's still fresh in their mind.
Don't hit them up a week later,
for the first time,
and be like, hey, it was great having you at church.
They're like, who is this?
Unsubscribe, right?
And so two things,
being have a follow up strategy,
check that podcast for specifics,
strike while the iron is hot,
Hobbit, swords being made.
No, omelet!
- Omelet. (laughs)
Alright, so the last question is from Nick.
Nick says,
"Could you guys do a video or a walk-through
"of how to launch Facebook Live
"for your church service?
"From beginning, what equipment to buy,
"to the end, broadcasting on Sunday."
- Facebook Live, absolutely huge right now.
Churches are taking their live stream
and putting it on Facebook Live.
Do I like this?
I love it, because where are the people?
They're on Facebook.
Every time we've done a survey or we've asked questions,
we've asked churches,
where is your biggest audience?
Every single time it's Facebook.
You run a little bit of Facebook ads,
and you'll have more people liking your Facebook page
than ever come to your church.
You'll have like 100 people attend weekly.
You run Facebook ads for one month,
you'll have 1,000 likes on your page.
Easy.
And so you have a huge audience on Facebook.
Most churches do.
Putting your live stream on Facebook is a great idea.
Here's the problem:
this has happened to me now four Sundays in a row.
I've gotten up on Sunday,
I've been in church, wherever I am.
In the green room, I'm on Facebook.
And because Brady of ProChurchTools.com,
I have so many friends on Facebook
that add me from other churches.
And I'll scroll on my feed on a Sunday morning,
and it's just service, service,
service, service, service.
What do I not like about this?
All it feels to me
is as if I'm a fly on the wall.
I can't attend this church
because they are very far away from me, likely.
And I just feel like a fly on the wall.
I'm getting to be a spectator,
I'm observing, but I'm not a participant.
It kinda feels like a cheap secondary solution.
Well, I can't attend your church,
but at least I can kind of watch from afar
and creep, and say, ooh, they're singing that song.
If only there were a solution to this.
Probably, though, if there was, it'd be expensive.
- I would assume. - Probably
it would require a ton of gear.
- Obviously yes.
- Because Facebook Live, to do well,
requires a ton of gear.
If you're already live streaming,
maybe you've got an encoder.
Blackmagic just released in the last couple of weeks
Blackmagic Design,
a couple of brand new exciting live stream
from more mobile and small setups,
all great stuff.
A Blackmagic rep got in touch with us this week,
and said, can I come on the show?
We have so many church clients that use our stuff.
You're the podcast we want to be on.
Let's talk about our gear.
I was like, I love you, Blackmagic.
Would love to have you.
With all that being said,
here is what your church should do on Facebook Live,
beginning to end,
when it comes to gear and process.
You should take your phone,
and say, Pastor,
get your butt over here.
Take his phone, take her phone,
open up Facebook,
there's a button that says Live.
Click the Live button,
and then go freaking live.
And you should take your pastor,
and you should say, hey church,
and then do what pastors do.
What are we all doing for church?
We're getting in our cars,
and we're driving 20 minutes,
fighting the parking lot of church.
The crazy people at church can never drive.
- Truth.
- You show up late,
you hear a message, you go home.
And then we say, you know what?
We recognize a lot of people attend church on average
every other week.
People are in the military.
People are traveling for work.
I saw a great report from Pew Research Center this week.
It said 50% of people that say that,
sorry, 50% of people that used to attend church frequently
and are now attending less frequently,
50% of the people say, why?
Practical reasons, like I'm just too busy.
People are not coming to church as much as they used to,
and our solution is to spend 10K to 20K
on a crazy live streaming setup
just so that they can be spectators to church.
Just so that they can act as flies on the wall.
They can't be here,
at least they can watch what we're doing.
Why don't you just include those people?
It's free.
All it requires is your phone.
What I want to see pastors doing
is taking their message,
repurposing it for a 10-minute live stream.
It takes 10 minutes!
Hold up your phone, look into it.
Do the pastor thing.
You just did it on stage for one, two, three services.
Host an online service.
12 o'clock every week.
You know what it is?
It's me on a live stream as the pastor,
looking to my phone
and taking 10 minutes to talk about the message.
Here's the great thing about that:
the live stream is gonna have interaction.
People are gonna be responding,
asking questions.
Why does spectating
and being a fly on the wall for a live stream suck?
Because these people don't get to be a part of the church.
They get to watch, okay?
You go to a concert,
you go see a sports game live,
it's a lot more exciting and enthralling
than watching on TV, right?
Because you're a part of it.
You get to do a Facebook Live
and suddenly the military personnel,
the people that are traveling,
the people that are bedridden and homesick
and they can't even attend church,
they want to, but they can't because of their health,
suddenly they've got face to face interaction
with their pastor.
Suddenly their pastor's answering their questions.
Maybe he prays for some people at the end.
Maybe she does some prayer requests,
and does that at the end.
Wow, amazing.
It costs zero dollars,
it took 10 minutes.
You should do that every single day.
There's a lot of churches
that send out daily devotional newsletters.
Forget that!
E-mail is a lot harder than it used to be.
Facebook Live?
Facebook wants to give you lots of reach with Facebook Live.
They want to do it,
because they want you to use Facebook Live,
so they're gonna give you way more organic reach
than you would with any other thing on Facebook.
Churches are always complaining, still,
it's been five years.
My organic reach isn't what it used to be.
That's because you're still posed in text, you fool!
Goodness, open up Facebook Live.
Jesus take the wheel.
(Roxanna laughs)
Churches always talk about their limited resources.
We don't have the money,
we don't have the time.
We don't have the personnel.
And then they go and drop 25K
on a brilliant live streaming setup,
and they're auto-publishing newsletters
to their freaking Facebook page!
Dear Lord, save me!
Jesus saves!
I think you know where I stand on this.
I purposely chose this question
because we've been getting
a lot of questions about Facebook Live.
And I understand that this not the answer
Tim, Carl--
- Nick.
- Barry was looking,
Nick was looking for.
That's a reference to episode one.
Was looking for,
and we have a session of the podcast
on Facebook Live,
talks more about strategy.
I know you're looking for gear and stuff.
We're gonna have, I think, a rep from Blackmagic on,
and they just released some amazing stuff
for a more mobile live streaming setup.
So we'll do a breakdown of this.
Ask Brady isn't really the best place
to do specific gear recommendations.
And honestly, I don't know too much about live streaming.
As you may know, I don't love it,
and so I don't spend too much time on it,
and so I don't know too much about, okay,
you got the source and the encoder
and the distribution and all that.
Here's just what I want you to think about, church.
You don't need to go
and have an expensive live streaming setup.
If you're already live streaming
and you already have your setup,
pushing it to Facebook Live makes sense.
I get it.
It's only like one extra step.
But it's also one extra step for your pastor
to take their phone for 10 minutes a day
and do a live stream.
Nothing bad can come of that, only good.
My pastor doesn't have time.
Well, then your pastor needs to freaking get off their butt
and figure out what they're doing with their life.
Pastors are always, like, you know what?
I'm not about social media, Brady.
I'm about reaching people.
I'm gonna slap you.
I'm gonna freaking slap you.
Because the amount of people on social media
that you can reach
is infinitely more than the amount of people
showing up to your one-hour service
to hear you preach.
Gosh!
- I'm not about social media,
I'm only about reaching people.
- I'm not about reaching people,
I'm only about just not ever being where they are.
(Roxanna laughs)
Send your pastor this Ask Brady.
Freaking send them this.
Is that the final question?
(laughs)
- Yep.
- Question of the day for you:
are you doing Facebook Live every day for 10 minutes?
'Cause there's no excuse.
No excuse.
I want you to comment below this video, Pro Church Nation,
and just commit.
Do it for a month.
Do it for one month.
Heck, not a month.
Do it for five days this week.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
And Sunday, because we talked about that.
Okay, you know what?
- Six days. - I'm locking it in.
Seven days.
Monday to Sunday. - Oh boy.
- Do it for seven days.
Look at your reach.
Look at the comments, look at the interactions.
Just take your phone, talk into it.
Pastors are good at it.
If there's anything a pastor's good at it,
it's communicating the word of God.
They should be good at a lot of things.
North American church culture for most pastors,
preaching and teaching is a huge part
of their job description.
So they should be good at it.
It's not hard.
Take your phone, do it.
Do it for seven days, let me know how it goes.
That's my challenge, and the question for the day for you.
If you're already one of the people doing this,
please post in the comments below about your results.
We'd love to hear it.
We have some case studies,
but having case studies in these comments would be nice.
With that being said, thanks for watching.
Thanks for putting up with the saltiness for this week
of this angry Canadian.
We do this every single week.
