The traps ministry leaders fall into are many. If every seat is filled during a service, one might assume that what they are doing is working and people's lives are being changed. If classrooms are packed, one might be tempted to think that their people are fully involved in what is happening at their church, but is attendance a trustworthy metric for evaluating the health of the church?

In Mind The Gap, Clint Grider offers a thoughtful and practical approach to answering the deeper question that plagues many pastors' minds: "Is what I'm doing actually working?" Clint offers an approach through the extended metaphor of the underground railway system found in the United Kingdom to connect many of the "gaps" that exist in ministry.
