Sermon Feedback Survey
Thank you for giving me your input on future sermon series. Expect this survey to take 5-10 minutes.
I cannot attach answers to any particular person, so please feel free to respond honestly. If you want to discuss any of your responses with me, reach out directly (
cgwartney@fumcstw.org
). Again, I won't know that you've given a particular response. This survey is simply a tool to help me discern the most common "felt needs" in our congregation.
Finally, I hope you will reflect the spiritual hunger you sense in our congregation when you take this survey. Good sermons are not necessarily ones you like. Rather, they are an instrument of the Holy Spirit to reveal truth to us. So, help me discern where we are spiritually hungry. The best sermons speak to our collective spiritual hunger.
Peace, Pastor Charla
