I’ve had the recent opportunity to be thrown into the world of interviews.
We’re in the process of wrapping up interviewing and hiring a new administrative assistant who will provide support to our Children’s and Student ministry programs.

We’re taking steps toward becoming a church that’s staffed a little more “Orange.”
It’s pretty exciting.

The last three weeks of phone calls, interviews and call-backs have inspired me to apply some of our team’s learnings to our areas of ministry.

Over the next few posts, we’ll take a look at some questions we should be asking ourselves and our ministry areas as we gear up for the launch of our Fall programs and initiatives.

Today, I encourage you to introduce yourself.

Think about how your ministry might begin a job interview.  If it were asked to simply “Tell us about yourself”… what would it say?… what should it say?
You need to be able to answer this question with brevity and confidence.  Can you do that?

Each weekend, your programs have a chance to make a first impression on a family… are you being intentional?
