Choose what your staff can do

Your worship leader doesn't need the sermon writer, and maybe you'd rather only you added to the Church Brain. Everything about what your staff can do lives on one tab in Settings, and every change takes effect straight away.

Before you start: Only your church's owner sees the Staff tab. The Church Brain switches and Team momentum need Pro.

Good to know

  • Staff never see the Staff or Billing tabs, and their church name, tradition and role are greyed out in General.
  • A staff member can't change their own position. If they're missing a kind of writing they need, change it for them here.
  • Pending invitations have the same position menu, so you can fix a position before they even accept.

If it’s not working

My staff member says the sermon writer is missing from their menu

That's their position at work. Give them a position that includes sermons, such as Associate Pastor or Teaching Pastor, and ask them to reload the page.

My youth pastor doesn't have a Brain button

Let staff add to the Brain is off. Turn it back on here and the Brain returns to their menu.

The switch flipped back and says “Couldn't save. Please try again.”

The change didn't stick, so nothing changed. Try again in a moment.

I don't see the Church Brain switches

They come with Pro, so on the free plan they don't appear. Positions and removing someone work on any plan.

I removed someone by mistake

Invite them again from the same tab. Their account and their own work are still there, so they're back as soon as they accept.
