This is great! I am absolutely on board with this idea. Substack is accessible. easy to use, and free. For my doctoral project, I am building an online church on Substack, www.streamsofgrace.life. (Would love your thoughts if you have time to peek at it) The only downside that I can see is that Substack does not really show up in Google search results, although hopefully this is something they are working on. Great article!

I’m not sure that’s true. I just Google’d ‘why churches should make Substack their website’ and my article came right up first (Substack won’t let me share the screenshot)

Oh that's awesome! I am excited to see that.

Your site looks good!

I would recommend more of a flow - more intentionally engaging followers/subscribers, and helping them discover what you’re offering.

Please do join the course - coming out in about 10 days!
