Alignment of vision and purpose doesn't happen by accident, and it isn't maintained without careful attention and proactive strategies. As a coach and mentor to hundreds of pastors, Chris Sonksen has had a front-row seat to the unfortunate outcomes when a team member begins to drift from the vision of the church and the leader they serve. But the good news is, these situations never come out of left field. There are always warning signs that, if heeded, allow church leaders to rise to the challenge of keeping their team healthy, unified, and moving forward together.

In this powerfully practical book, Sonksen unpacks six subtle behaviors that undermine team unity and lead to problems that can derail your ministry and even split your church, including

- pride
- artificial harmony
- isolation
- a critical spirit
- divisiveness
- disrespect

He then offers a blueprint for what to do when you see or feel evidence of these behaviors creeping into team dynamics.

Now is the time to act if you want to improve and preserve the unity of both people and purpose in your team. The action steps laid out in this book will get you there.
