    How to Build a More Unified Team with Rob Ketterling

    What's the secret to a successful ministry? Psalm 133 gives us one of the most critical keys: unity. It’s been said that if you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together. But building a close-knit team requires some difficult leadership decisions. Many pastors and leaders feel they have to carry the full weight of building their church’s culture. There are often fears like: what if I say the wrong thing and it divides my church? How do I handle conflict within my staff members? If you've asked these questions, you're not alone. In this week's episode of The Healthy Pastor Podcast, John and Arden are joined by guest Rob Ketterling, pastor of River Valley Church, who shares insights that will help you build a more united culture amongst those you lead. P.S. Grab a copy of Rob's book, "Speed of Unity: You'll Know It When You Feel It" here, or consider gifting it to a loved one: https://a.co/d/dw45d3V
