Ep. 181: Summertime Attendance Lull

Should pastors and churches adjust their summer schedules? What expectations should pastors have of their members for attending during the Summer? Is it realistic to expect members to be present every Sunday in the Summer? How can pastors continue to remind their members of the priority gathered worship should have in their christian lives?

Jim and Brian discuss all these topics and more on the newest episode of Trenchtalk.
