How To Grow A Healthy Church Without The Stress

Is your church stuck, shrinking, or just going through the motions?

In this video, we explore 6 powerful elements to building a healthy church that actually feels like family—even if you’re leading fewer than 250 people.

After 30 years in full-time ministry and coaching pastors nationwide, I’ve seen what works—and what doesn’t—when it comes to helping small churches grow with purpose, passion, and community.

We’ll walk through:
What truly makes worship engaging
Why discipleship often stalls—and how to fix it
How to equip people for everyday evangelism
Ways to empower volunteers without burnout
What real community looks like (and how to build it)

This isn’t about trends or quick fixes. It’s about lasting health, real relationships, and building the kind of church where people actually stay.
