Concepts are great, but they don't matter without practical application methods. That's where we attempt to bridge the divide from where we are to where we could be. -- From music to ministry and from art to the artist, let's find a practical way forward!

    EASTER IS THE SUPER BOWL OF MINISTRY. IN GOOD WAYS AND NOT-SO GREAT WAYS. Listen to old music and sermons and remember what it was like to hear them for the first time. Feel permission to let that memory stir up a fresh perspective that gives ministry a reignited approach. -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/⁠

    "NOSTALGIA" ISN'T ABOUT A TIME PERIOD. IT'S ABOUT THE FEELING THAT TIME PERIOD GAVE YOU. There are two versions of "Nostalgia": 1) The kind that evolves. - Invites you into the feeling so it can expand and grow. 2) The kind that embalms. - It excludes you from the feeling for the sake of independent experience. -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/⁠

    SINCERITY AGES WELL. LET'S CHOOSE IT MORE OFTEN. What "young people" do today... our grandparents will do 3-5 years from now. So it might be helpful to realize its less about trends that get results and more about the feelings behind the screens that have the potential to bear fruit. Let's steer clear of hollow messaging, when we could be full of purpose-defining calls. -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/⁠

    IT'S NOT ALWAYS WHAT YOU DO... IT'S ALSO HOW YOU DO IT. For many of us 2023 was a long and difficult year. We might not have been treated fairly or given the opportunities to blossom into our potential. But we're still here. We're still able to try again with a fresh perspective. Thank you for everything you weren't told "thank you" for. It mattered then and it still matters now. Let's see where a fresh consistency can take us from here! -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/⁠

    JANUARY CAN START YOU STRONG OR START YOU BLURRY. January has everyone excited. For a little while. That's where we can approach the month with more realistic expectations that will lead to more fruitful results in ourselves and the things we attempt. There's nothing magical about a month, but there is something substantial about a unified mindset. Let's address the conversations that are in our imaginations and see a shift that the rest of our year can feel the momentum from! -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/⁠

    Language & Voice In Social Media

    THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE "ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE" AND "THE UNIQUENESS OF THE COMMUNICATOR". Its one thing to speak through language. Its another thing to have a perspective that makes someone want to listen to what you have to say. Trends and algorithms will change consistently. (As they should.) But the uniqueness of who you are will always be your most valuable magnet for gaining attention in your social media management strategies. Do the TikTok dance... but wear your own pants. Whatever that means. -- Contact us as hello@thepracticalemail.com Sign up for our newsletter or get more info at: ⁠⁠https://www.thepracticalwebsite.com/
