EPISODE
What if your reporting system wasn’t just tracking numbers, but unleashing missionaries? What if the key to multiplying disciples wasn’t more budget, but more clarity?
Jeff Reed sits down with Lucas Pulley, executive director of Tampa Underground Network, to unpack how a decentralized microchurch movement tracks data without killing the movement. Lucas breaks down the four core metrics every microchurch network should measure, why Airtable replaced spreadsheets and HubSpot, and how to build a reporting culture that feels relational — not controlling. Practical, no-budget-required systems thinking that digital ministers and microchurch planters can steal immediately.
