Episode notes

There does seem to be something distinctive about churches that mobilize many people to volunteer. If you're frustrated by the volume of complainers in your church, you probably need to encourage them to serve other people. You also mentioned a connection between volunteer engagement and generosity. People who give their time by serving others tend to be more generous towards people with their time.

As people are coming back and still more new people are showing up, finding volunteers to support our mission has become more important than ever.

We're kicking off a new series on Rethinking Volunteer Engagement and exploring new data insights and practical wisdom around building a healthy volunteer culture. In this episode, Tony and Amy explore the connections between volunteer engagement and unity and generosity in the church.
