Every quarter, The Unstuck Group releases The Unstuck Church Report to help church leaders monitor trends and benchmarks in key ministry areas. After all, a data point by itself doesn’t tell you much, but that data point tracked over time and compared to other metrics can begin to tell a story.

In this episode, Tony and Amy unpack the "story" this quarter's data is telling as well as some of the key findings from the Q3 2023 report.

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.

When senior leaders are clear on their roles and their giftings complement each other, the church is well positioned for health and growth. On the other hand, when those same leaders don’t own the responsibilities they can't delegate, the vision and team begin to suffer. 

This week, we’re kicking off a brand new series on “Sharpening Your Executive Leadership Skills” with a conversation on two key roles an executive pastor can't delegate.
