15 Innovations the Church Should Embrace Now!
1 Chronicles 12 contains a listing of the 12 tribes that helped David establish his rule as King of Israel. All the tribes are described as warriors except for the tribe of Isaachar. They are referred to as leaders. And it says they understood the temper of the times and knew the best course for Israel to take.
Innovators are part of the tribe of Isaachar. They are trend spotters and trendsetters. They refuse to do ministry the way it has always been done. They don’t repeat the past. Innovators create the future. They don’t do ministry out of memory. They do ministry out of Imagination.
We asked several “Isaachar” leaders to give us their views on what innovations the Church should be immersed in. Here are their responses.
Podcasting – circuit riding at the speed of light
In addition to your weekly messages, how about spicing it up with special editions? Try doing interviews with church neighbors, the mayor, volunteers, staff intros., etc. If it’s worth preaching it’s worth podcasting. Any church of any size can exponentially increase its impact via MP3 technology.
