The goal of the Church Health Partners is clear.

“To foster healthy, vibrant churches by equipping pastors and their teams with the tools, strategies, and support they need to lead effectively and fulfill their unique calling. We want to see a healthy church in every community, led by empowered and passionate leaders, making a lasting impact for the Kingdom of God.”

In Episode 405 of the Influence Podcast, I talk to Gerad Strong about what a healthy church is, why churches become unhealthy, and what to do to get them back to health. I’m George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host.

Gerad Strong is director of Church Health Partners, a ministry of the Assemblies of God. He is author of Multiplication Mindset, forthcoming in [month, year] from [GPH?].

This episode of the Influence podcast is brought to you by My Healthy Church, distributors of 13: Leadership is More Than Luck.
