5 Keys Toward Becoming Unstuck

October 18, 2024 by Paul Alexander Articles, How To's

3. They develop people.

They don’t pay everyone in the church to do ministry, instead they typically have a pretty lean staff (a ratio of 1:100+) and pay those staff to invest in and develop volunteers. They identify young leaders and give them real responsibility to make real decisions and own the ministry. Actually be the church instead of just coming to church.

4. They view spiritual maturity differently than most.

They don’t view spiritual maturity as something that happens in a classroom. It’s not about content but rather your behavior. In other words, it’s not so much what you know, it’s what you do with what you know. Ironically enough, that’s the same way Jesus defined it. They’ve also mapped out a clear pathway for people to run on. The moment they say yes to following Jesus, there is a series of clear next steps for them to take to move forward with Jesus.

5. Unstuck churches are courageously humble.

The posture of their leadership is a humble confidence. They’re life-long learners and incessant tinkerers. Willing to learn from anyone from any industry and any size organization. They’re not afraid to ask for help, even from outsiders. They lead in their area of brilliance and submit in areas of weakness. They’re willing to confront the brutal facts and listen to the truth, even when it’s not pretty.
