In this episode, Carey Nieuwhof breaks down four distinct communication styles typical of dying, stagnant, shallow, and growing churches. He also gives you the tools you need to break out of a rut to become a more powerful and effective communicator.

The #1 factor people look for in a church is the quality of the preaching. 

In fact, 86% of people choose a church based on that.

So, what separates preachers and communication in dying, stagnant, shallow, and growing churches? That’s what we’re discussing in this podcast episode.
