In this episode, we talk about how a church can produce helpful content beyond sermons to serve those they are trying to reach. Michelle Gines is a book publisher and she unpacks the publishing process. Churches can produce helpful content in various ways including ebooks, videos, and emails which can grow their audience beyond the walls of the church.
