What’s Inside…

The Volunteer Systems Playbook is a practical field guide for leaders who want volunteer culture to be healthy, consistent, and sustainable—not dependent on memory or heroics.

Inside, you’ll find:

• A clear explanation of what SOPs are, why they matter, and how they directly shape the volunteer experience

• The 27 essential SOPs every growing church needs to reduce chaos, protect people, and create consistency

• Plain-language definitions that explain what each SOP does and why it exists

• Guidance on what healthy SOPs should include, how long they should be, and how detailed they need to be

• A simple framework for prioritizing which SOPs to build first

• Copy-and-paste AI prompts to help you draft custom SOPs tailored to your church’s size and context

This isn’t theory or a checklist. It’s a systems playbook built for second-seat leaders who are responsible for making Sundays work—and want to do it without burning people out.
