Learn how you can recognize the signs of division before they happen and discover how you can unite your team to carry out the work God has called you to do.
Division in the church is real and it's the cause of faith-shattering, relationship-ruining heartbreak. When the enemy takes a run at your church, he won’t do it through those who attend it; he will do it through those who lead it.
As a coach and mentor to hundred of pastors, I've had a front row seat to the unfortunate outcomes when a team member begins to drift. In this book, I unpack six subtle behaviors that can tear teams apart.
These include:
Unity amongst a church and team doesn't happen by accident, and it isn't maintained without careful attention and proactive strategies. My hope is that this book can give you the insights and tools to help save your church from itself.
Learn what the signs of LeaderDrift look like and how you can spot them early.
Discover a blueprint to use when you see evidence of LeaderDrift creeping onto your team.
