This chapter discusses the importance of transitioning from programs to a clear discipleship path in order to gain traction. It also emphasizes the need for churches to define their mission, vision, and strategy, and highlights the challenges and mistakes related to a lack of strategic alignment.
Often, well-intentioned churches add more programs believing it will lead to more growth. In reality, competing priorities ultimately lead to more complexity and a lack of alignment.
In this episode, Tony and Amy continue our series on Stupid Church Tricks—explaining what we can learn from them and how to avoid them.
