How Small Churches *Actually* Grow Using Social Media

Three months ago, I started collaborating with a smaller church in Rochester. Working with my team, we implemented four steps - and saw some incredible results. Here’s how it happened…

    I appreciate your time and effort to making us smaller church social media managers have a clear cut path to do our work. Ever since I begun following your steps bruh... The work has been defined coincise and we're slowly making progress... It will take time but we will get there! Keep doing what you're doing inspiring and helping creators like us put the churches out there so that in the end God's name will be glorified, thank you brother!

    I noticed at the beginning of the video that list of places were most if not all in the northeast. My church is in the northeast, and I was concerned that region might affect our growth. This video clearly shows it won't. Thanks Brady! We may need to expand on the platforms we post on.

    How large of a team of volunteers do you think is needed to be able to do this? Most of the volunteers are older and usually wear many hats. Thanks.

    This is great Brady, but was wondering… Could you do some tips and tricks on how to grow small Christian youtube channels as well? I’ve been compiling some music content, but I want my content to be seen by many more people. I’ve used YT shorts, and those have been pretty successful for small worship clips, but there are some videos on KZread that don’t do as well. Obviously my focus is to do this for the King, but just wanted some insight on how to grow on KZread!

    How do you setup up the vertical videos? For example; do you have a template for how the words pop up or anything like that?

    I know you don’t have a course but I almost wish you did or I was able to learn from your staff. I’m working the #noweeksoff with my church but see little no growth. Just wish I knew what I was doing wrong or if there something more I could be doing.

    Brady would you apply these tips to Non-Profits as well? I work for a pretty well known Christian non-profit that is focused on youth but of course fundraising as well. I’m wondering how much of your content do you feel is applicable to us.

    As a smaller church, what camera would you recommend us getting to get good video of our services? Of course, as a smaller church, our budget is minimal...

    What is your definition of a small or smaller church? Is it 150-300 members in-person weekly? My church, on a good Sabbath, gets 12 people max and I am one of them and everyone in plus-50. We use live streaming and I am trying to use KZread to just post a trimmed down version of the sermon each week. Do you have any advice for such a tiny church and do you have any advice on how to know what would make good content for our reels? Our budget is super limited and small so we cannot really spend too much on services.

    When talking about the local part of shorts, how important is it to use the location feature for every short? Is just having the city in the profile enough or do you need to tag the church location in each video? I ask because I signed up for a service to allows me to post to multiple social media outlets from one spot and pull in metrics but for Tiktok, you can only tag a location from the app.

    Hey Brady, our church lost access to our Facebook page during a leadership transition. The previous pastor was the only admin and he removed himself from the page. The page currently has no admin and we can’t find a way to get it back. We had 1.6 followers and would love to get that back but can’t seem to make it happen. Have you guys run into this before?

    The consistency is tough... It has worked though. Small growth for us, be we are seeing some. I need to move from 1 video to 2.
