"A guide to reignite your church's growth."--Andy Stanley, senior pastor at North Point Ministries

You want your church to grow. Maybe you've been searching for answers at conferences, in books, and on websites. But did you know that the answers that can actually make a difference in your ministry are the ones you need to give yourself?

When Your Church Feels Stuck poses seven unavoidable questions church leaders must answer before they can chart the unique path to growth for their church. These challenging questions address the key subjects of mission, strategy, values, metrics, team alignment, culture, and services, and the way you and your team answer these questions will help you discover the real reasons your church is stuck--and what steps you need to take in order to facilitate real growth.
