OM DENNE EPISODE
When people start slipping away from church community, they become spiritually vulnerable. But a pastor can’t look after everyone alone. How do you build a ministry where everyone notices who is missing—and steps up to pursue them?
In this episode, Moose and Gabe Cleave discuss how to move your church from basic attendance tracking to a deeply personal culture of shepherding. They share practical ways to empower small group leaders, staff, and volunteers to spot the gaps, notice quiet disconnections, and actively bring people back into the fold.
Listen in as Moose and Gabe walk through how to implement these leadership guardrails in your own ministry—and what it really looks like to “chase the strays” in a practical, everyday way.
