Danger signs of an unhealthy church mindset

Over the years I have become increasingly convinced that a healthy, strong and growing church is not about the programs, policies and activities that a church is doing but more importantly the mindset and paradigms it has adopted.  That being said let me share 9 thoughts mindsets that are danger signs of an unhealthy church mindset.


  1. We boast of faithfulness instead of fruitfulness.(John 15.1-8)
  2. The Committee or Team's name changes but the faces around the table don't.
  3. We excuse ourselves for lacking quality in what we do.
  4. We plan for our comfort not for ministry opportunities.
  5. For an event to be successful everyone must attend.
  6. New people are given "opportunity" to serve only after a few weeks attending and without being equipped.
  7. We like to say, "We always do it this way!"
  8. We hear, "We pay the pastor to do the ministry things."
  9. We have a purpose we just aren't sure what it is!
