Equip Session: Event Planning - Running events that build the church (Part 1)

We all know church is not an event company... right?! But event planning is a huge part of what we do as churches. In this podcast we are joined by some of the best in this space from around the C3 movement - Jacob Leung (C3 SYD), Chrissy Forbes (C3 Toronto), Hans Buijsrogge (C3 Imagine) and Sarah Shackleford (C3 Atlanta). These event gurus discuss the importance of strategic event planning in churches, emphasising the need for clear objectives, team building, and effective follow-up. What we learn is that well-executed events can foster church growth, deepen community connections, and serve as powerful tools for discipleship and outreach. If you’re a pastor, team leader or church administrator this conversation is gold! Not to be missed. This podcast episode is Part 1 of 2. Part 2 to be released next week, and will dive more specifically into two key events in the church calendar - Christmas and Easter! For all C3 Churches, we have provided the planning templates discussed in this podcast in the C3 Church Global Resource Hub.
