100% of Pastors Will Stop Pastoring at Some Point

by: VRcurator

On April 21-22, Auxano will be leading a Pastoral Succession Boot Camp in Phoenix, AZ. Churches can bring up to five team members for this groundbreaking, full two-day learning experience that will be ministry shaping and a tool-rich environment.

Pastoral Succession Boot Camp

Mountain Park Church

Tuesday, April 21 and Wednesday, April 22

9 a.m. – 4 p.m. each day

$1,995 per church (up to 5 team members)

The Succession Boot Camp equips ministry leaders to implement a healthy, wholistic, and effective succession planning strategy. During the two-day workshop, your team will evaluate:

– Four Continuity Factors – In total, your team will assess 23 key organizational areas. The goal of the initial assessment process is to predict the areas that will most likely cause disruption during the transition process. Naming these areas in advance minimizes the likelihood they will cause significant harm.

– Three Process Pathways – There are three primary pathways leaders and churches will use to navigate transition. We will assess key reasons why each is selected and traps to avoid in their implementation. The goal is to follow the pathway that best fits your unique situation.

– Five Essential Signposts – There are five key areas that need to be accounted for as you manage transition. Churches that fail to account for one or more of these areas tend to struggle with the implementation of their transition plan. Knowing these five areas will help ensure a more effective process.

The Boot Camp includes:

  • Two full days of training with your team (9 a.m. – 4 p.m.)
  • Pastoral Succession Workbook for each team member
  • Customized Pastoral Succession Implementation Plan for your church
  • Training tools for your team
  • Lunches and breaks throughout the Boot Camp
  • One virtual coaching follow-up session for your church

Transportation, lodging, breakfast, and evening meals are NOT included

100% of Boot Camp fee is refundable through March 31, 2020. 25% is non-refundable after April 1, 2020.

Facilitators

Mike Gammill has created a collaborative learning environment that will introduce practical tools designed to help your team effectively steward a season of Pastoral Succession.

comment_post_ID); ?> Thank you Ed for sharing your insights into the Church Growth Movement. I have my reservations with Church Growth models because it has done more damage than good in the Body of Christ. Over the years, western churches are more focused on results, formulas and processes with little or no emphasis on membership and church discipline. Pastors and vocational leaders are burnt out because they're overworked. I do believe that the Church Growth model is a catalyst to two destructive groups: The New Apostolic Reformation and the Emerging Church. Both groups overlap and have a very loose definition. They're both focus on contemporary worship, expansion of church brand (franchising), and mobilizing volunteering members as 'leaders' to grow their ministry. Little focus on biblical study, apologetics and genuine missional work with no agenda besides preaching of the gospel.

comment_post_ID); ?> Thank you for sharing such a good article. It is a great lesson I learned from this article. I am one of the leaders in Emmanuel united church of Ethiopia (A denomination with more-than 780 local churches through out the country). I am preparing a presentation on succession planning for local church leaders. It will help me for preparation If you send me more resources and recommend me books to read on the topic. I hope we may collaborate in advancing leadership capacity of our church. God Bless You and Your Ministry.
