Have you ever felt isolate and alone in your job before? Have you ever felt that no one understands the stresses of our particular position? Sure! We all have. No matter what job you are in, everyone has felt overwhelmed, underprepared and stressed out. Everyone needs a pep talk every-now-and-then. This definitely applies to Church Communicators as well.

That is why I invited Kelley Hartnett on the podcast. Kelley has been involved in Church Communications for over a decade starting off as a receptionist for her Church. She now runs the Courageous Storytellers site which is a great resource for Church Communicators, whether you are new or a veteran communicator.

Kelley also just wrote a book entitled, “You’ve Got This: A Pep talk for Church Communicators“. It’s a fantastic book that will be the perfect pep talk Church Communicators need.

• Why she wrote it
• What the #1 stressor for Church Communicators is
• Why the demands on a Church Communicator are so high
• A quick breakdown of what the book is about
• An encouragement for all Church Communicators today
• Why it is so important to celebrate the wins!
• What should Church Communicators learn to say
