challenges

  • No strong church identity - This is about bad branding or a lack of brand awareness.
  • No growth strategy - Don't assume because current members gather and enjoy fellowship, others will also come.
  • Lack of enthusiasm for outreach - This usually starts with a lack of passion and becoming complacent and only focusing on maintaining what you have.
  • Pastor burnout - When the Pastor is doing everything burn out can occur and when that happens over time it will destroy enthusiasm.
  • A lack of resources - There isn't a one size fits all when it comes to people and meeting their needs. A church should adapt to the unique needs of the community and its members.
  • No way to track data - You can't evaluate what you can't measure.
  • Resistance to change - is very common. Sometime our resistance to change include not listening to others who have ideas.
