The Church Asked. They Didn’t Answer.
Churches need to collect stories and answer questions from their community. How do they do it effectively? Recently, a church posted on their social media page a request for questions they wanted to be answered in an upcoming sermon series. Something like, “do you have a burning Biblical question that you’ve always wanted the church to answer?”
It was a great idea. They posted a short video asking for people to simply post the questions on their wall below the video. It seemed reasonable since people were seeing it on Facebook, so they should simply add a comment like they would on anyone’s post.
It couldn’t go wrong. Except it did.
They approached me for a potential solution. At the time, they had almost 500 views but no comments. Nothing.
Here are 3 things to check and change when you ask and they don’t answer.
These 3 areas must line up for you to get responses. If you’re experiencing problems (like this church was), I would suggest fixing one at a time if you don’t know what is broken. That way you can monitor the success rate for the fix and be able to identify what works for your community.
The more you can replicate a request with success, the more you can launch another “ask” and be guaranteed to get an answer in the future. Engaging your community is essential; we need to ensure we’re doing it right!
