The Shepherding Gap: Nobody Drifts Overnight
Church Executive is highlighting what it calls the 'shepherding gap' in church leadership, arguing that pastoral drift is a gradual process rather than a sudden collapse. The message is that leaders rarely abandon their calling overnight; instead, neglect of spiritual care accumulates quietly over time. The piece is prompting discussion among church leaders about how congregations can spot and address slow erosion in pastoral attention before it becomes a crisis.
