Monday Oct 07, 2024
Monday Oct 07, 2024
“It’s not just a problem of filling the pulpit and getting somebody who could come in and pastor; it’s actually a survival issue.”
Dr. Paul Harrison discusses the critical shortage of pastors and the challenge churches face when searching for a pastor. He also describes the model Paul laid out in the New Testament of raising up leaders within the church to pastor when he left.
The Executive Office offers help and resources to churches who are without a pastor through the Pastor Placement Program and The Shepherding Initiative. #NAFWB #BetterTogether #Church #Pastor #PastoralSearch #PastorShortage
