Six common mistakes are quietly sabotaging church residency programs—and they’re totally avoidable.

In this video, Dave Miller from Leadership Pathway unpacks:

Why churches talk about residencies for years but never get started
How poor onboarding in the first 30–90 days can derail a young leader
When the “honeymoon phase” should end, and real ministry weight should begin
Why residents need multiple voices (supervisor, coach, mentor, host, etc.)
How leaders unintentionally “quit too soon” on the coaching process
The danger of confusing your unique story with universal truth
BONUS: Why expectations for talented, stage-ready Gen Z leaders are often set way too high, way too fast

Whether your church is 100 people or one of the largest in the country, this will help you launch and lead a healthier ministry residency that actually develops long-term leaders.
