Faith in the Street

FaithStreet is passionate about helping churches reach their communities not only on Sundays, but also MTWTFS. Inspired by that, we are looking for instances of faithful expression outside of the church.

This Church Uses Baseball to Grow

Though football is revving up, much of the summer months are thought of as a “dead zone” in terms of sports: You have baseball, a little golf, a little tennis, and more baseball. However, that didn’t stop one church from capitalizing on a choice location and a surging local

Your People Don't Give. Is It Your Fault?

An interesting question, one posed (and eventually answered by) Chris Willard over on his blog. It must be something every church leader asks themselves: “Other churches seem to be doing well, but we’re not reaching our goals. Did we just get a bad batch of worshipers, or is it

4 Little Problems Solved by Online Giving

Often times when we talk about online giving here at FaithStreet, we speak in broad strokes. You know, “online giving increases giving overall” (it does), or “online giving is affordable no matter how small your church” (it is). That’s what our customers want to hear when they contact us,

3 Keys for Successful Fundraisers

We talk a lot about online giving here at Faithstreet (seriously, we’re the best at it), but churches just as often turn to more “traditional” fundraisers for specific needs in causes. What’s your go-to? A car wash? A bake sale? Sure, those are fun, but just a little

An Interesting Theory on Declining Attendance

For a church leader, attendance is everything. Sure, a lot more goes into a healthy, thriving church, but it all depends on how many butts you have in the pews. With a recent Pew poll finding that people are definitely, maybe, sort of falling out of touch with religion, it’

People Give More When They Have Options

You know non-profit giving has reached the big time when the “paper of record,” the New York Times, has one of its top economic consultants on the case. In this week’s column, Robert J. Shiller examines what motivates people to not only give, but give more. He discusses a

Is Your Church Diverse Enough to Survive?

A couple of months ago, OnFaith shared a story titled “Are Millennials Really Leaving the Church? Yes — but Mostly White Millennials.” It got considerable social media exposure, likely because anything nodding in the direction of a doomed church is exceptionally shareable. The piece featured a few statistics, including the following:

Feeling Burnt Out? Why not Focus on Growth?

Last week at OnFaith, we featured a story from pastor J.R. Briggs titled “Why Half of All Pastors Want to Quit Their Jobs.” Upon further fact checking, we found that titular statistic is… a little spurious, at best a little oversimplified. Still, there’s no denying it: Being a

Church Growth Doesn't Have to be Organized

“Millennials,” people aged roughly 18-32, are an odd thing (Firefox’s spellcheck doesn’t even recognize the word): As The Washington Post noted last week, they want to live in hip, urban environments, but as soon as they make an are desirable, they often find they can no longer afford

Is Old-School Thinking Preventing New-School Growth in your Church?

With an increasing number of Americans claiming spirituality but turning away from organized “traditional” denominations, growing an established church can be difficult. If you’re a church leader, you’ve undoubtedly experienced these non-growth pains yourself. However, if we can open our minds a bit, maybe there’s a lesson
