The Unstuck Church cover

This insightful guide examines the lifecycle of a church and offers practical steps for leaders to achieve sustained health, as outlined in The Unstuck Church.

In The Unstuck Church, Tony Morgan, an esteemed church leader and strategist, explores the lifecycle of churches, identifying key characteristics at each stage. He emphasizes the importance of understanding where a church currently stands, whether it is flourishing, declining, or in a state of stagnation. Morgan highlights that each phase presents unique challenges and opportunities for growth, urging church leaders to take proactive steps towards revitalization.

Morgan delineates seven distinct stages of a church's lifecycle, from the exhilarating launch phase to the critical moments of decline. He argues that regardless of the current state, every church has a vital mission: to fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples. With this mission at heart, he encourages leaders to recognize the potential for transformation and renewal, no matter how dire the circumstances may appear.

The Unstuck Church serves as both a reflective guide and a practical toolkit for church leaders. By offering strategic next steps tailored to each phase, Morgan empowers churches to pursue sustained health and vitality. This book not only challenges leaders to assess their current position but also inspires them to strive for the pinnacle of church life, where they can continuously engage in disciple-making and experience lasting impact in their communities.
