Events are crucial for student ministry. You need to have them as they help compliment your overall ministry plan. But is there a real strategy that is involved in organizing your events and calendar?
That is why I brought in Ashley Bohinc to the podcast. Ashley is the Director of Middle School Strategy for the reThink Group (aka Orange). She led a Breakout at Orange ’17 about this very topic and so, in today’s episode, Ashley and I discuss
- Ashley’s ministry background
- What are the difference between Strategic and Random events
- How you can map out the year (Blank image here. Filled out image here)
- What Orange has coming up (especially with middle school ministry) and the Think Orange Podcast that she co-hosts.
If you want to connect with Ashley, you can find her on
Twitter (
twitter.com/AshleyBohinc). She is very active on social media so definitely hit her up if you have a question.
