The Opportunity

 

Madison’s Pastor Nathan Renner knew something was missing. He needed someone to help him and his staff navigate the “nuts and bolts” of content creation, support that would allow him to return to his core calling: studying and sharing scripture.

Inspired by the opportunity to partner with experts in professional marketing, Pastor Nathan reached out to Rethinking Evangelism® by Delmar®. He trusted Rethinking Evangelism® to build a consistent and engaging online presence for his church. The partnership was a natural fit. Rethinking Evangelism's® dedication mirrored Pastor Nathan’s passion for scripture. Together they magnified Madison Campus Church's message.

Our Imperfect Family

Sermon series are a great way for a church to grow together during a season. During the month of April, Madison Campus Church learned about families in the modern world and how to love each other through their imperfections. Rethinking Evangelism created all of the necessary branding for the series before the campus experienced it live, including social media posts, email reminders, and social media ads. After the series had concluded, they took the video recordings and transformed it into an evergreen learning series anyone can sign up for and watch, complete with study guides.

Social Media Ads

Rethinking Evangelism® created social ads while the series was being preached live to bring people to Madison Campus Church.
