CleanHow we accidentally turn people away without knowing it | This week we start a two part episode on The Church of Knowledge. We discuss pet peeve curse of knowledge examples (4:01), some of the things we assume everyone knows (5:46), and how some confusion is unavoidable (7:31). Jonathan talks about how an assumption almost made him leave the church (8:56) and how we can avoid turning people away (14:11). To round out the show, we hit on how assuming people don’t know this isn’t dumbing down our theology (18:32), Jonathan uses another bad dating metaphor (21:29), and how we can never explain things too often (23:30). | 2/13/2019 | Free | View in iTunes |

(6:17), how does marketing factor into the church? (7:11), what does the word hero even mean? (10:13), what are some ways we make people the hero?

Excellent Podcast!
So good for church communicators!
Jonathan and Kyler are so knowledgeable. Our church tries to use Storybrand, but sometimes it can be a challenge. They break it down in a way that makes our marketing and communications easy to format and so much more effective.
Thanks guys!
Amazing!
I absolutely love listening to these podcasts. They are very informative and unbiased.
