2022 Workshop Talk | 53:48 | Leadership & Strategic, Legal & Insurance, Marketing & Growth
Summary
It seems like a match made in heaven; no pun intended. The church has a building that is used sparingly during the week. The property has classrooms, a sanctuary, a playground, and a parking lot. The new school has outgrown the co-op’s space. It needs a building that has classrooms, an auditorium (sanctuary), a playground and some parking! Both ministries want to serve the Lord and direct students and families to Jesus. What could go wrong? Plenty! Drawing from over twenty years of school administration involving two different schools in two different countries and five different church buildings, Matt will explore:—the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of ministries sharing space—The HAVE TO HAVE vs. Sure would be nice to have—the protective umbrella of the church And more!
