Eric's Corner - July 2025

An encouraging note from your friendly neighborhood ChurchSource Account Manager

Hello friends,

July is here! Or as I like to call it, Volunteers Disappear Month. 😊 Hopefully, you’re finding ways to unwind, relax, and spend time with friends and family this month, despite all the things that still have to get done at church!

We wanted to free up a bit of your time this summer, so we’ve packed this issue with turnkey, stress-free solutions for you—easy ways to engage your church in Bible reading, equip your youth and teen ministries, and start to ease into fall small group planning. We hope these tips, tools, and stories are helpful and encouraging to you!

Blessings,
Eric
