EP 52: Is It Time To Change Your Way Of Doing Church?

Change is at the heart of what we do as church leaders, but you remember I said this is a bit ironic. The irony is, that by and large, church leaders are typically people who don’t change at all! What if you were an alien from another planet who visited your church. What would you see and experience? Would the report you give to your superiors reflect New Testament Christianity? Principles must remain unchanged, but methods ARE changeable to intersect with the culture we want to reach. We can easily get stuck on doing things because they have always been done that way. During the podcast, I look at some things to examine in your ministry that may need an update. Getting stuck in traditions you prefer rather than traditions scripture teaches is the fastest way to get old as a minister and old as a church.  Winston Churchill said, “To improve is to change. To be perfect is to change often.” On today's show, I spoke about my book, When A Good Church Goes Bad. You can learn more about it here. If you prefer Kindle, go here.
