Empowering women has been a focus in different industries but it's not always talked about within the church. We believe it's time we start a conversation as women offer tremendous value to the faith community.  Women in the church are important so it's a must that churches include them and to allow them to use their talents and gifts for the fulfillment of the Great Commission. Women can do so much more!  It's time that women are given different opportunities in the ministry. Women are encouraged to become the people God wants them to be, just as how we empower men the same way. By empowering everyone and not just women, the church can become a community that fully reflects the love of God.  Watch this episode of the Social Media Church Podcast as Nils Smith and Katie Allred have an interesting conversation about empowering women in the ministry. Learn why churches should give more opportunities to women beyond the kitchen and the home.  Join us in this conversation!   Show Notes: Nils Smith Website Nils Smith Facebook Nils Smith Twitter Nils Smith Instagram Nils Smith LinkedIn Katie Allred Facebook Katie Allred Website Katie Allred Twitter Katie Allred Instagram Katie Allred LinkedIn Social Media Church Discord Social Media Church Webinar Amplify Social Media

Girlfriends! We snagged the remarkable Katie Allred as she shares her story that led her to where she is today. (First - ignore the technical issues - we are NOT TECHIES! So we tried to add intro music but it clearly did NOT work so it's just us and KATIE!) She talks about what it looked like to pursue God and wait on God - ALL AT THE SAME TIME and while she was a young girl. This blows our minds because while Katie was all about God early in her life, we were all about watching American Bandstand on Saturdays and riding our bikes. In fact, we didn't even meet Jesus until well into our "advanced years." We dig into women in church leadership and how the stained glass ceiling is a real thing. But Katie is doing something about that with She Leads Church, helping, teaching and empowering women to rise above any level that God has gifted them to lead. Katie Allred is a marketer, social media strategist, and professor. She is an expert in online communities for nonprofits, churches, or businesses of all sizes.

What I love about social media is that every year I discover new people that I learn from and follow. Then, what I like to do is to share them with you all. In fact, I take 6 people or groups and highlight them once a year, usually at the end of December or early January. To find out my lists from previous years you can just like the year (2016, 2017 2018, 2019 and 2020). While 2020 was challenging, the reality is, if you were following any of the digital ministers I have shared about in the past, like Ben Stapley, Dave Adamson, Jeff Reed, Katie Allred, Jeanette Yates, Seth Muse, just to name a few, you would have gotten a lot of great encouragement and help in 2020, especially with the onslaught of COVID. The criteria that I have is that they are involved in Church Communications, Social Media, Student or Family Ministry or Online Ministry. They also need to be producing great blogs, vlogs or podcasts on a consistent basis. If they do not post regularly, they aren't one the list. I am not going recommend you follow someone if they aren't being consistent in their postings, no matter how great their content is. And that's it. Here are the top 6 to seek out in 2021: Rey De Armas. I met Rey a few years ago from a mutual friend, Jeff Reed. Rey is the Online Pastor at Christ Fellowship in Miami, Florida. He is passionate about people coming to know Jesus and mobilizing others to minister to their friends and family (I have had him on the podcast before talking about this). Tyler Samson. Tyler is the Lead Pastor at Church Anywhere. He is also an Admin for the Online + Digital Church Leaders Facebook Group. The group is designed for Online and Digital Minsters looking to learn from each other. It's a great group with tons of help. Digivangelism. I first discovered Digivangelism on TikTok in 2020. Their goal is to help “church leaders reach people with the love of Jesus ONLINE”. And, they do just that. What I really appreciate about what they do is that they are very active on TikTok which not a ton of minsters are at the moment. Brianne Fleming. She may not be a minister but she is someone who has so much great content about brands and marketing. She hosts a very popular #PopChat on Twitter every Friday and Making the Brand podcast. Jate Earhart. Jate is extremely gifted in digital media and motion graphics. He uses Twitch to stream and chat with people while he plays. D.J. Soto. D.J. is the first person people go to for VR Church questions and thoughts. He is the Bishop of Virtual Reality Church.

One of the most under-utilized tools online, Facebook Groups allows for incredible engagement digitally.

We're asking three seasoned experts (Katie Allred, Jeanette Yates, and Julie Harris) this question live, answering your questions on how your church can better utilize Facebook Groups today.

Your church website is a funnel that brings new visitors to your church in-person. To increase the number of in-person visitors resulting from the funnel, there are two general areas in which you can improve: 1) Generate more "new visitor" traffic to your church website; 2) Do a better job of your website converting "new visitor" website traffic into in-person visits. In this episode, Katie Allred and Kenny Jahng will discuss two aspects to help you evaluate your traffic: Google Search Console and Google Analytics. Google Search Console helps you evaluate where your organic, "new visitor" traffic is coming from, and how to get more. Google Analytics helps you evaluate what "new visitor" traffic is doing once they reach your website, and how to improve your website to convert more new visitors into in-person visits.
