    • Accountability Theatre: Why Most Church Accountability Systems Do Virtually Nothing
      Feb 12 2026

      In this podcast episode, Todd Rhoades discusses the often superficial nature of accountability in church leadership structures. Despite having formal accountability systems, many churches fail to enforce genuine oversight, leading to leadership collapses. Rhoades emphasizes the need for true accountability, where independent voices with real authority can question decisions and prevent power abuses.• Churches can have accountability structures that appear effective on paper but lack substance.• Staff and board often fail to challenge questionable leadership decisions, fearing conflict or repercussions.• Charisma is often confused with character in church leadership, leading to overlooked misconduct.• Accountability is needed for all leaders, not just those suspected of failure.• True accountability involves independent oversight, shared power, and transparent systems.• Leadership failures usually stem from cultural weaknesses, not structural shortcomings.• Action steps include fostering environments where leadership can be challenged constructively.

    • Culture will Eat Your Mission for Breakfast: Watch Out for This...
      Feb 11 2026

      In this episode, Todd Rhoades discusses the disparity between a church's mission statement and its actual culture, emphasizing that culture ultimately prevails over mission. He shares insights from his book 'When the Church Falls,' analyzing leadership and church failures, their common causes, and how to prevent them. A key message is that culture is defined by daily actions rather than aspirational values, and toxic cultures emerge through gradual compromises. Rhoades encourages identifying and addressing tolerated cultural issues to align church culture with its mission.• Church culture often contradicts its mission statement.• Culture is determined by practice, not aspiration.• Toxic church cultures develop gradually through compromises.• Leaders should evaluate and name cultural issues that shouldn't be tolerated.• Rhoades offers resources and assessments for understanding church risk levels.
