This Church Fuel Live series is all about Breaking 200 — one of the most important growth thresholds for churches.

Many churches don’t get stuck because of a lack of effort, but because of a lack of systems, clarity, and choices in the wrong direction. In this series, we’ll walk through the key shifts that help churches move past attendance barriers and build healthy, sustainable growth.

We’ll focus on how to have a mindset for the church you want and how to make choices to get you there. A Growth Mindset establishes the foundation for every decision that follows.

The Guest Experience Evaluation: Retention starts at the front door. We’ll do a practical deep dive into creating an unforgettable guest experience that keeps people coming back.

We’ll cover everything from the “new front door” (creating connection before Sunday) to what happens in your parking lot, auditorium, and Kids Ministry. We will unpack the phrase, “great marketing makes a bad product fail faster” and how fixing your “product” is the key to keeping your visitor system working and growing your church.

What We’ll Cover:

• 📈 Overcoming key growth ceilings through guest retention
• 🤝 The difference between friendly and welcoming
• 🚗 The complete visitor timeline (arrival to departure)
• 👶 Winning in Kids Ministry & key touchpoints
• 🔄 Systems that turn first-time guests into long-term church family

This Church Fuel Live series is all about Breaking 200 — or whatever growth threshold in next for your church!

No one is coming to your church, because no one knows your church exists. It’s likely not a lack of vision, it’s a lack of reach. If people don’t know you exist, they can’t experience what God is doing in your church!

Join us live as we break down the practical principles of breaking through the Visibility Barrier and creating a consistent stream of first-time guests.

Key Highlights:

👀 The Visibility Reality Check: Why great preaching alone won’t fix a reach issue.

💰 Budgeting for Growth: The power of allocating 3% to digital ads for 8–10+ new visitors a month.

🏈 Glacier-Like Consistency: How long-term marketing creates unstoppable momentum.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 The $14 Visitor Formula: Utilizing Facebook and “Plan Your Visit” campaigns to reach local families affordably.

🛠️ Tech Made Easy: How Church Fuel Software does the heavy lifting for you.

What if the secret to growing your Sunday attendance isn’t better marketing, but deeper engagement?

The partners in your church (those who own the mission alongside you) are both the heart and the engine of your ministry. They create the culture that first-time guests experience the moment they walk through your doors. But if you don’t have clear pathways to move people from passive consumers to active contributors, your church’s growth will inevitably hit a wall.

Join us as we unpack the Engagement Principle: why involvement drives attendance, and how building intentional systems for serving and giving will unleash your church’s full potential.

What We’ll Cover:

• ⚙️ The Engine of Church Culture: How mission-minded partners create an environment that attracts and retains visitors.
• 🔄 Consumer to Contributor: How to build seamless, repeatable systems for serving and giving.
• 📊 The Magic Equation: Why you will average a certain attendance for every volunteer serving—and how to use this metric to forecast growth.
• 📈 Engagement Drives Attendance: The direct correlation between active involvement and your Sunday morning attendance numbers.
• 🎯 Mobilizing the Mission: Practical ways to inspire your congregation to take ownership of the vision.

If you’re ready to stop pushing for attendance and start building engagement that naturally fills your seats, you won’t want to miss this session!
