If you hear a lot of NOs when you’re looking for volunteers, you’re not alone.

Trying to run small church programs with limited volunteers is a challenge whether you’re a church plant or established, an older church or younger one, in the city, country, suburb, or sandwiched in between two mega-churches.

Instead of letting the NOs dim your hope, erode your passion, or exhaust your energy, listen in to hear how you can experience God’s grace and compassion in the midst of it all instead.

We’ll be talking about:

8 reasons volunteers say NO (& why being busy is not one of them)
The three most destructive responses to NOs & how to avoid them
Why compassion is a lot more productive than judgment
A reasonable alternative to doing it yourself when there’s no one else to do it
