This chapter explores why some churches are hesitant to practice pruning, attributing it to fear of negative repercussions on people's response and giving. The speakers emphasize the necessity of pruning for a healthy church and discuss the importance of leadership, courage, and long-term ministry health.

The beginning of a new year means new goals, dreams, and resolutions. This year, The Unstuck Group wants to help you get your church as healthy as it's ever been, too!

This week, Tony and Amy are kicking off a new series on Pruning and introducing the “2023 Unstuck Church Get Healthy Again Challenge.” In this episode, they'll start by explaining why pruning matters and start to identify things that need to be stopped or shed in order to get healthy.
