A 12 month experience
In this small-cohort setting, you’ll receive practical mentoring and coaching, learn alongside people who may be a few steps ahead, and gain direct access to The Unstuck Group’s team, drawing on our experience serving more than 800 churches.
It’s personalized wisdom, honest conversation, and ongoing support to help you win in your role.
The Kickoff Gathering
This year-long experience kicks off with a 2-day gathering to set a solid foundation and invest in the relationships that will develop.
Zoom & Slack
After the kickoff gathering, the group will connect for 12 months.
Facilitators
The Unstuck Group has served more than 800 churches since we were founded in 2011. Some of our most seasoned consultants facilitate these cohorts. Learn more about Sean and Chad's experience in their local churches, and on the Unstuck team, below.

Chad Hunt
With more than 25 years in ministry and 18 years as a Lead Pastor, Chad brings real-world experience and practical insight pastors of smaller congregations can use immediately.
He’s served urban and rural churches of every size, coaching leaders through the everyday challenges of ministry, from volunteer development and sustainable growth to revitalization and congregational health.

Who Will Participate?
This is an event for lead pastors at churches with an average attendance of 500 or less.
We will offer personalized encouragement and next steps to each pastor based on the challenges the church is currently facing.
In all of the sessions, the goal will be to help you make good decisions about critical concerns and walk away with actionable next steps to move forward.

What Others Are Saying
Beyond what I would have thought of.
"It was great to have discussions around how we could break through barriers and lids. I enjoyed the in depth discussion as well as the hyper pragmatic approach. It felt very intentionally curated for "practitioners" and not a nebulous leadership conference."
