Communications people: celebrate all saints day!

Why All Saints?

The whole idea of All Saints’ Day is something I find great comfort in because it’s a reminder that we’re not blazing new ground. We’re not the first ones to struggle. We’re not the first ones trying to bring people into our churches. We’re not the first ones exploring new technologies. We’re not the first ones to fight the ‘that’s how we’ve always done it’ mentality.
“We’re not alone. We’re not the first and we won’t be the last.

”Yes, we have new struggles today. But there have always been challenges. Today it might be social media, but before it was radio. Today it might be a church website, but once upon a time it was the printing press. We might bemoan the divisive state of politics today, but the church has struggled through much worse throughout history.

There are heroes of faith we can look back to and find inspiration in. The technology may change, but the challenge doesn’t.
It can be all too easy to feel like we’re all alone, like no one has been in our shoes before. But we’re not alone. We’re not the first and we won’t be the last.

So, communicators, take some time this week to remember and celebrate your saints.
