Finding Church Health Again
It's not about going back. It's about finding health again.
Most churches are still focused on getting people to return back to their services. And it's easy to understand why. But are you feeling the call to put your focus forward again?
The truth is, most organizations start, grow, thrive, lose momentum, decline… and eventually end. Even before the pandemic, 80% of churches were in maintenance mode, and our new reality has fast-tracked the decline of unhealthy churches at a pace faster than ever before.
Although the future still seems murky, and there are no "quick fixes" for health, that doesn't mean your next steps are unprecedented or unclear. Churches that were healthy and growing before and those that still are today have this in common:
They aren't just hoping for health. They're planning for it.
Here at The Unstuck Group, we've helped more than 500 churches who were facing decline make a plan to move towards sustained health. We had the opportunity to work with over 50 of those churches during the pandemic, and their feedback is clear: They're seeing results.
It's not about recapturing something from the past: It's about charting a course forward.
When something is unhealthy in your body, you go see a doctor, run some tests, and then make a plan for what you'll change to be healthier in the future.
