Hold a Blessing of the Animals event on the Sunday closest to Oct. 4, which is designated as World Animal Day, when churches throughout the world hold a Blessing of the Animals event. Invite the community to bring their pets and remind them that God loves all creatures, great and small. (Traditionally, Blessing of the Animals events were held primarily in Catholic churches, but many Protestant churches have started holding their own versions to reach out to their “pet-centric” neighbors.)

Pastors Are Shepherds, Not Superheroes
Maybe it’s time we change the narrative. Expect your pastor to be a shepherd, not a superhero. Don’t demand their presence at every event or their attention at every moment.
Understanding the Longings and Language of Gen Z
It is our responsibility as leaders to reintroduce a generation to the true essence of Jesus and his original vision for the church.
Cultivate a Heart for Evangelism in Your Church
Evangelism is not an add-on to our ministries. It is the very heart of our calling.
