Every quarter, The Unstuck Group compiles all the data we’ve collected to monitor trends in churches in the United States and around the world. Given current economic conditions, we decided to focus this quarter’s report on church finance and staffing trends specifically.

You can subscribe to receive the quarterly report for free, or, if you're subscribed to the podcast show notes, we'll send it out to you for free, as well.

More often than not, when a church is stuck because of their governance model, the issues come back to lack of role clarity for both the board and the staff.

In our work with hundreds of churches, we’ve found time and time again that poor governance structures lead to stuck churches.

In part one of our new series on "Effective Church Boards & Governance Models," Tony and Amy will be unpacking four common church board mistakes—and explaining how boards and governance models can instead be designed to encourage unity rather than division.
