So Everyone Can Hear

'This is so helpful, practical and accessible from a master of the craft. For all those who would love tips on how we can communicate better to both the church and the world around us. Over the years I have watched Mark do this brilliantly with the minimum of fuss and the maximum of grace.'

I have been waiting for this book all my ministry. Every church pastor and leadership team should read this. Mark Crosby is a remarkable man and here his gifts are given away. This is a must for every leader. I have known Mark for a number of years and he is the best Communications Director I have ever met who also loves Jesus, the Church and is passionate to see the Kingdom grow. This is not a book on church media it is a manual for church mission.

Mark Crosby is the real deal – a man with a passion for Jesus Christ and a gift for helping churches communicate it

As the Communications Director for Vineyard Churches (UK & Ireland), Mark has been hugely effective in shaping communication both within and beyond our movement across multiple platforms. His passion for Jesus and the Church, his strategic mind and his diligent study of current and emerging means of communication, combine to make what he has to say well worth listening to. In this book Mark demonstrates his ability to make the complex simple, providing practical tips which have the potential to transform the church’s ability to connect with those within and far beyond it.

Mark is one of those great disciples who quietly makes things happen and doesn't mind who gets the credit. He has been such an encouragement in helping his church and many others communicate to students and young adults and joins up conversations and people all the time. From my experience in working with churches looking to reach students, clear, relational communication and consistent, kind follow-up is mission critical. Mark does this in his own life and so I pray this book helps many others do the same in the hidden and public spaces of following Jesus and being his church.

The work of community formation is progressed through reliable communication. My friend Mark Crosby excels in leading churches to communicate in healthy ways that help rewrite the story of their cities. So Everyone Can Hear will be an invaluable tool for every community seeking to grow in strength as they gather and scatter for the sake of their cities.

Church Communications is one of the vital ingredients that we need to learn how to master as church leaders. Mark is one of the leading thinkers and practitioners in church communications and having known him for a number of years it's a delight to now have his experience neatly packaged in a book. So Everyone Can Hear is a vital addition to the toolkit of every church leader.

A vital and practical resource for churches today.

A clarion call for churches to leverage all the communication tools the 21st century has to offer in service of reaching the world with the gospel. Compellingly written, beautifully designed, and grounded in Mark Crosby’s extensive experience, ‘So Everyone Can Hear’ is a gift to all Christian communicators.

Mark Crosby's well-researched and immensely helpful guide to modern church communications points the way forward for churches wanting to make a real impact in their local community. And it also echoes advice and warnings given five decades ago.
