How does this actually work? Below you’ll find a pair of examples. The first step in The 2-Part Church Announcements Formula is: one story. The 2-Part Church Announcements Formula: One Story + One Next Step Of course, to inspire any of these next steps you first need your church’s attention.Īnd the absolute best way to capture that attention using both the example of Jesus and our current understanding of how the human brain functions is to use storytelling. You want a person to respond to your announcement and join a small group, sign up to be baptized, set up recurring giving, or register for an upcoming event. The ultimate goal of any church announcement is to compel a person to take a next step. 2 Storytelling is unique because it’s the only type of communication that can snap us out of this daydreaming state and force our brains to focus. Up to a third of our waking hours are spent in a daydreaming state. Storytelling is the only type of communication that actually forces our brains to focus and pay attention. Jesus understood the secret of storytelling that we now understand thanks to brain science. No less than 35% of the time Jesus was teaching he was using story In Robert Stein’s book The Method and Message of Jesus’ Teachings, Stein takes inventory of all of Jesus’ teachings throughout the synoptic Gospels and finds that no less than 35% of the time Jesus was teaching, he was using story. And I know that’s a pretty big claim, so let me offer you some proof to back it up.
Storytelling is the single most powerful form of human communication. Simply put, this announcement formula uses the most powerful form of human communication as its foundation: storytelling. This formula works in any church, in any context. I’ve personally presented more than 30,000 church announcements over the last five years (I founded an agency that does video announcements for churches) – and this formula encapsulates everything I’ve learned in that time.
