Church Public Relations - A Biblical Guide

Pastor Rick Warren has learned that the press and public don't always walk to our drummer, so we're bound to encounter one public relations challenge after another. At one point Rick decided to see what the Bible had to teach us about public relations.

He came up with a few observations that can be supported with the Bible:

1. Tell only the truth
2. Report God's power at work
3. Expect opposition
4. Make room for ceremony and display
5. Be alert to teachable publics
6. Appreciate non-Christian help
7. Consider silence
8. Question some questioners
9. Don't be too smooth
10. Watch for traps
