In most congregations, the rarest participant is a young male. In some churches, these are almost an endangered species, if it isn’t extinct already. However, it’s not that guys don’t have a spiritual side to them … they do. But there are a number of reasons why they eschew church. In this episode, Drs. Bill and Kris explore why men don’t do church and what to do about it. 


Christmas Eve worship services are the only socially acceptable church services that an unchurched person can attend – attending any other service invites derision from co-workers, friends, and even family. This is also the one time during the year when most churches can count on a significant increase in first-time guest visitation. How will you capitalize on it this year? In this episode, Drs. Bill and Kris offer concrete advice on how to make the most of this important service. 


It’s nearly that time again. There’s only two months until Christmas and if you haven’t got your Advent planned, it’s time to get into gear. Getting into the holy-day spirit early so you can get your plans made before it’s too late, Drs. Bill and Kris offer this year’s checklist to get you ready for what’s to come. 


In most circles, public speaking is considered the task most feared by the average person. But in church, that runs a distant second to public prayer. Getting even seasoned Christians to pray in public can be more difficult than bailing out the Atlantic Ocean with a slotted spoon. In this episode, Drs. Bill and Kris de-mystify public prayer and offer some concrete how to’s and faux pas to avoid.
