Christian radio stations are an incredible resource for churches.

Getting the word out is hard when you have no budget and limited resources, so find out how you can leverage one of Australia’s 38 Christian radio stations to help with the heavy lifting.

In this episode, Ben Kiujian, CEO of Rhema explains the options and the heart behind Christian radio stations.

1 - Community Noticeboards
Jump online, submit your event and let more people know about upcoming courses, training or events. Your event is searchable and on a community calendar, and may get announced on-air.

2 - Job listings
List the staff position via the website to get it visible online and also on-air. At Rhema, Job Line is broadcast multiple times a day so it’s an effective way to create multiple touchpoints.

3 - Find a church
New people are moving to your area or exploring faith all the time. Create a presence for your church highlighting the features that make your church different.

4 - Church Spotlight
Contact your radio station and see if there’s a chance to get your pastor on-air for a short spot to talk about the heart and soul of your church.

5 - Mates rates ads
Talk to your local station and work together to create an ad campaign to get the word out about the major events you are organising. (A Christmas extravaganza, Carols event, Easter services, holiday camp, marriage course)

6 - Podcasting/studio hire
Lots of churches pivoted and moved online due to the pandemic. Leverage the professional equipment, studio space and expertise of your local radio station to increase the audio quality of your sermons, messages, music recordings etc. Ideal if you’re delivering a message in another language and broadcasting it online.

7 - Outdoor Broadcasts
There’s an incredible energy that comes from having a live broadcast at your event. Christian radio stations exist to support their community so celebrating milestones, conferences and events aligns with that mission. There may be a charge to cover staff or equipment costs, but invite them and see if an outdoor broadcast (OB) makes sense for your church and the station.
