"We all quit!" (Sorry for the inconvenience)  In July 2020, a post from Burger King employees in Nebraska went VIRAL as news outlets reported at least 7 of the 11 employees at a Lincoln branch quit at the same time.    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/...  Stories of short staffing, financial pressures, managerial turnover and "hectic" work conditions seemed to resonate with people all over the world.   What we all want and expect from work & career has changed massively over the last two years and jobs that didn't exist a couple of years back have become real career opportunities. Rising food and fuel prices have meant that most of us are the feeling the squeeze RN.  In this pod, we discuss the effects this new economic reality has had on us as a family, what we've learnt from the stage of life we've just left behind & the new skills were learning for the future... Youtube   ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/kingdomcompanychurch Instagram  📱 https://www.instagram.com/kingdom_company_ https://www.instagram.com/MatthewJamesHooper https://www.instagram.com/ClareHooper Facebook  😀 📘 https://www.facebook.com/kingdomcompanychurch Website https://kingdomcompany.co/ In today's episode, we'll be discussing the importance of taking responsibility for our own growth and development, rather than relying solely on our employers. As Christians, we are called to be fulfilled and to live out our purpose in all areas of our lives, including the workplace. One of the key takeaways from today's discussion is the idea of being "multi-hyphenated". This means not putting all of our eggs in one basket and instead having multiple sources of income and activities that enrich us and draw on our skills. This can provide a sense of autonomy and flexibility that allows us to thrive and flourish in all areas of our lives. Our guest speaker for today is someone who has personally experienced the challenges and benefits of balancing multiple sources of income and finding work that aligns with their values and mission. They share their experience of working for a stable organization with good values while also pursuing their goal of planting a church. As we navigate the complexities of balancing our faith, personal development, and career, it's important to remember that our well-being and professional development are ultimately in our own hands. We encourage you to think about your own needs and to reach for them, whether that be through professional development opportunities offered by your employer or through other means. So join us as we explore the theme of thriving in the workplace, and how to balance our personal and professional goals as Christians. Thanks for listening, and we'll be back next week with more insights and inspiration on this topic.

In this podcast we talk about ⤵️  How to find a great church, what does a great church looks like and why in-person gatherings still matter!   Why we should gather together in a post-lockdown society?

What should we expect to GET for a relational investment?

In this Podcast Matt and Clare discuss values, why we need them, how we wrote them and why it's hard to do church without them. We chat about our fears around collaboration and how this became the best thing we did.   A vision statement describes what the church will become in the future whereas values define how people in the church should behave. It provides a guideline for decision making.  We wrote our values together after months of discussion and here's the outcome  https://kingdomcompany.co/about-us/  We hope this helps you build a church and life you are proud of helping others find and follow Jesus    Matt & Clare     Useful links ...   E-Course https://www.digitalchurchtoolkit.com/GetUnstuck-ShowUp-and-StandOut-Ecourse Youtube   ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/kingdomcompanychurch Instagram  📱 https://www.instagram.com/kingdom_company_ https://www.instagram.com/MatthewJamesHooper https://www.instagram.com/ClareHooper Facebook  😀 📘 https://www.facebook.com/kingdomcompanychurch Website https://kingdomcompany.co/ Appreciative enquiry link  http://theappreciativepartnership.com/

In this Podcast we get into some really interesting discussion around hybrid church, the future if KC & how to maintain and be proactive with your digital health and not let it become overwhelming.

Don't go another day feeling confused and unsure how to best utilise your personal digital presence. In the UK over 51million people are active on social media, making 2.5billion+ Google searches each day. How can you influence them with the Good News? In this podcast episode Matt & Clare encourage you to not miss out on this unique opportunity to influence people and help you get unstuck, show up and stand out on social media.   Thanks for listening    Matt & Clare Useful links ... 👇 E-Course https://www.digitalchurchtoolkit.com/GetUnstuck-ShowUp-and-StandOut-Ecourse Youtube   ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/kingdomcompanychurch Instagram  📱 https://www.instagram.com/kingdom_company_ https://www.instagram.com/MatthewJamesHooper https://www.instagram.com/ClareHooper Facebook  😀 📘 https://www.facebook.com/kingdomcompanychurch Website https://kingdomcompany.co/

We keep hearing this myth "DIGITAL CHURCH ISN'T REAL COMMUNITY THOUGH, RIGHT?"    In this episode we talk freely about our POV on hybrid church, what we love what we are disappointed about. How our son going to university made us realise this is the end of some things. We chat around making real friends on social media, are they true friends?  Why it would be beneficial to ditch vanity metrics, and toxic competitive church habits & painful endings.     We also circle around ... "Are you worried about What's left over?"  "What even is a church anymore?"  "What's the point of me going to church anymore?"  OR secretly saying  "Help, I don't actually want to go back to church after lockdown" "I'm disappointed with my church, I want to try somewhere new".  Our conclusion is THE FUTURE CHURCH needs to be an active learning environment creating transformational followers, the focus for a long time has been about leadership and developing leaders. Church has an opportunity to develop transformational follower-ship in a post COVID culture, live out the great commission and walk alongside people.    THE FUTURE CHURCH is hybrid, COVID-19 has levelled us and we need to rebuild with new methods.   Could it be our digital presence is a modern day 'spire' , when people were in trouble & looking for answers to the big question in life they would know where to go because the spire would stand proud. If you don't show on social media how will people still know where to go?   let us know what you think or what your experience of church RN is in the comments    Thanks for watching   Matt & Clare     If you enjoyed this...  HIT SUBSCRIBE and LIKE this video Youtube   ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/kingdomcompanychurch Instagram  📱 https://www.instagram.com/kingdom_company_ https://www.instagram.com/MatthewJamesHooper https://www.instagram.com/ClareHooper Facebook  😀 📘 https://www.facebook.com/kingdomcompanychurch Website https://kingdomcompany.co/
