On this episode of the 1 Ministry Question podcast, Todd Adkins and Daniel Im discuss how to recruit new volunteers when you have exhausted all the regular options.
QUOTES FROM EPISODE 1
“Given the last two years, so many churches are starting from scratch when it comes to volunteers.”
“Most volunteers who are serving are serving 2.67 times, which means they are already serving in other ministries.”
“If you don’t have a philosophy of ministry in and around volunteering in the church and it’s not grounded in Ephesians 4, then you have to go back to the drawing board.”
“A volunteer is the person that is best equipped and best positioned to recruit another volunteer.”
“A lot of times the barrier to getting someone in the door, onboarded, and contributing to your ministry is a confidence issue, not a competence issue.”
