These resources will help you lead people well through change.
Our church hit a milestone this past weekend.
It was one year ago we closed our in-person worship services because of COVID.
At the time, I remember thinking, “we’ll close for a few weeks and open back up for Easter.”
Yeah…that’s not what happened.
As pastors and church leaders, we’ve been leading through what is probably the most complex and confusing season of ministry we’ll ever experience.
It has forced a lot of change, yet I believe there are still more changes ahead.
One of the most important roles for leaders is to walk people through change.
One of the biggest challenges in front of you as a leader is guiding people into and through the change that lies ahead.
The last two weeks, I’ve been listening to a two-part podcast I found to be very engaging and helpful.
Like you, I’m processing how to lead my teams through the change ahead.
And so, rather than write my own thoughts on leading change, I thought I’d share two episode links that have helped me.
Neither episode is long, and both are very engaging and practical.
I’ve also included the show notes for the second episode.
By the way, if you don’t read or listen to Patrick Lencioni, you’re missing out.
Enjoy.
How we lead our teams through change is incredibly important.
I hope you find these podcasts to be helpful.
If you have other great resources on leading through change, we’d love to see them.
Please share them in the comments below.
We'd love to show you what we built!

Breeze has been incredible. Their customer service, commitment to innovation, and their product are top-notch. I love the features, the ease of use and the mobile applications.
All of our database needs have been more than met, it's easier to use than the last database we had, and the price is amazing - what a value this has been to our church! All of our staff can use this software and they do regularly. We use it to track…literally anything a church could possibly need to track regarding it's attenders.
Breeze has been a great asset to our church and congregation. Especially from an administrative standpoint, it has been the most adaptable and easiest church database I have ever used. The features from blast emails to giving on-line, and texting have been one of our greatest assets. Thank you!
We switched from a major, web-based ChMS to Breeze and our decision is confirmed every day. We are a medium size church and we use Breeze for contributions, member management, event checkin and a few other applications custom to our church. I had trouble getting any staff to use our previous ChMS but almost all staff are using Breeze. The product is very well designed, extremely easy to learn and use and customer service is incredible.
Breeze has opened the communication highway for our congregation and staff, with very little training. Because members can update their own records and search easily for other members - and map their locations, send emails and text right from Breeze, they love it and our data is more real-time accurate. Our ministries are stronger, because they can trust the data in Breeze, which is easily accessed anywhere, anytime.
Breeze is the first ChMS my volunteers have actually embraced. That's because it's so easy to use. The software is very flexible and gives us the opportunity to make decisions based on actual data we've collected and not just hunches or stories we believe to be true.
I cannot say enough about Breeze. Their customer service is so friendly, you feel like you have friends and family helping you get started, they're prompt to reply and will do whatever they can to help you get things sorted out. It's been so easy to learn, our staff is loving it and best of all even our staff who are not computer savvy find it a breeze (pun intended). We are just thrilled by our choice.
From the start of our process looking for an online solution, Breeze has exceeded all our expectations. Fast data import, fast and friendly customer support, and we can’t say enough about how much we like the program itself. Very well designed and user friendly. On a scale of 1-10, Breeze gets a 15 from us!
