Episode notes

This chapter emphasizes the importance of flexible structures in supporting a church's strategic growth and highlights the need for leaders in leadership roles rather than competent doers. It also suggests incorporating high-level volunteer roles and planning for future restructuring.

Regardless of their uniqueness, every church has the potential to go through a very similar lifecycle: Most churches start, grow, thrive, decline, and eventually end. But God's plan for our churches is to mature to a place of sustained health.

In this episode, Tony and Amy are unpacking the challenges that come with the lifecycle phases of launch, momentum growth, and strategic growth, and how to overcome them.
