You’re listening to the Declare Podcast.

But should you start one of your own?

On today’s episode, Michelle Acker (host of the Declare Conference) interviews me (Heather MacFadyen) about the podcasting lab being offered at Declare this year. (And Michelle shares a bit about her blogging journey with a word of wisdom for the Declare community).

Perhaps you’ve considered starting a podcast but have been intimidated by the technical side. Then the Thursday afternoon lab on podcasting is perfect for you. Bring your laptop and learn hands-on how to get your podcast started.

Remember space is limited. You’ve heard from all 3 afternoon lab speakers. So after some prayer and reflection, make sure you sign up here.

What we talk about:

• How Michelle & I differ but how Christ works our giftings together for His glory
• Michelle shares the best “how I got started blogging” story I’ve ever heard
• Michelle’s word of wisdom for the Declare Community
• How the podcast lab will be longer and more thorough than last year’s breakout
• What an attendee can expect from the lab
• How I got started podcasting
• Why I kept podcasting
