The Pain All Growing Churches Face | Ep 21
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Every growing church experiences it: people leave.
Not always because something went wrong — but because growth brings change. And when a church moves into a new season, not everyone moves with it.
In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Hunter talk about the emotional weight pastors carry when families and leaders step away. Because this isn’t just about attendance — it’s about grief.
This conversation covers:
- Why turnover is a normal part of healthy growth
- How unprocessed pain can limit your leadership capacity
- The “Going, Going, Gone” system to catch drift early
- The difference between grief and intentional mourning
- How to bless and release people without hardening
If you’re serious about breaking attendance barriers and building a healthy, scalable church, you have to learn how to process the pain that growth brings.
