Acclaimed church leader, blogger, founder and chief strategic officer of The Unstuck Group, Tony Morgan unpacks the lifecycle of a typical church, identifies characteristics of each phase, and provides practical next steps a church can take to move towards sustained health.
Think about your church for a moment. Is it growing? Is it diminishing? Is it somewhere in between? Acclaimed church leader, blogger, and founder and chief strategic officer of The Unstuck Group, Tony Morgan has identified the seven stages of a church''s lifecycle that range from the hopeful and optimistic days of launch, to the stagnating last stages of life support.
Regardless of the stage in which you find your church, it carries with it the world''s greatest mission—to "go and make disciples of all the nations . . ." With eternity at stake the Church should be doing most everything within its power to see lives changed forever. The Church should strive for the pinnacle of the lifecycle, where they are continually making new disciples and experiencing what Morgan refers to as "sustained health."
In The Unstuck Church, Morgan unpacks each phase of the church lifecycle, and offers specific and strategic next steps the church leader can take to find it''s way to sustained health . . . and finally become unstuck.
The Unstuck Church is a call for honest an assessment of where your church sits on the lifecycle, and a challenge to move beyond it.

The year is 2012 and Tod Johnson, a senior CIA officer, receives a call from a man with whom he has not spoken in some twenty years. This man is Ari Arad, a semi-retired officer of the Aman, the security arm of the Israeli Army. In an atypically urgent voice, Ari urges Tod to come to meet with him in Israel the next day. There, Tod is told a shocking secret which could have disastrous consequences for both Israel and America. Exactly what consequences, when they will occur, and where, are completely unknown.
After several days of fruitless speculation, Tod is attempting to return to Boston when his El Al plane is turned around in mid-flight and heads back to Tel Aviv. As Tod suspects, the person behind this in-flight maneuver is Ari himself, who, in a city in the Negev Desert, has discovered a cryptic note:
17, 9, 12
Lituya Bay 100,000,000 dead This note was found beside the body of a man who had access to one of Israels greatest secrets; a secret that Tod and Ari must now assume has been give to someone bent on mass murder. The two quickly come to the conclusion that the numbers on the first line of the note represent a dateSeptember 17, 2012, but the critical questions of who, where and how these terrorists intend to kill 100 million people remain unanswered.
Through a tortuous process of elimination Ari concludes that a 100 year-old man living in Beirut, the last living senior member of the Nazi holocaust machine, may be the individual behind the plot. However, an elaborate attempt to infiltrate this mans organization fails, and the pair are left to continue their speculations. They ultimately conclude that the only way the number of deaths indicated in the note could be achieved is through the cataclysmic employment of a vast amount of water, billions of tons of water. The second half of the book is devoted to the events of the 8 days remaining until the disaster is scheduled to occur. The story travels back and forth from Washington to North Africa, to Israel, to Boston, to Spain, to the Mediterranean, to Beirut, to the Canary Islands and back again. The cast of characters includes: the female President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Spain, a beautiful and brainy CIA analyst, various North African Arabs, the Special Forces officer who recently captured Bin Laden, former Mossad agents, and even Tods wife.
Eventually, Tod and Ari discover the nature and location of the plot, but are they too late to prevent it?
