How to leave a church

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — JerrieMost preachers spend years preparing for sermons, visits, and beginnings—but almost no time learning how to leave a church well. In this episode, I share what I learned the hard way through painful exits, family strain, an abrupt dismissal, and, eventually, thoughtful and healing departures. From quoting the Sermon on the Mount to avoid criticism, to sitting in living rooms saying “thank you,” “I love you,” and “goodbye,” this is a candid look at how endings shape congregations, families, and future ministry. Whether you’re a preacher, an elder, or a church member who knows change is inevitable, this episode’ll challenge you to think differently about how we say goodbye—and why it matters more than we realize.Five Tasks of DyingThis podcast is brought to you in conjunction with the Ministry League Network.When you find a "mustard seed," please share the address of this podcast with a friend: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2369804/episodes/17566838Website for Braden Parsons PhotographyBraden Parsons' email:  [email protected] you'd like to discuss your roofing needs, call Jerrie Wayne Barber, II, at 931.628.3390 This podcast is brought to you in conjunction with the Ministry League Network.As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
