A Spiritual Companion to How to Get Along with Your Church (Paperback)

When churches are in crisis, pastoral leadership is under attack, and pastors and church officials struggle to find a way of better understanding why things happen or don't happen. Thompson's own pastoral experience led her to look beyond the popular "family systems" model to seek something that helps churches grow strong and pastors to become leaders. She found solutions in George B. Thompson, Jr.'s book [ital]How to Get Along with Your Church: Creating Cultural Capital for Doing Ministry[ital], and was inspired to develop a spiritual guide that strengthens the usefulness and effectiveness of his book. Specifically keyed to the book, her companion provides 100 days of daily meditation and journaling for pastors who are learning[em dash]with a culture model[em dash] to lead their churches into a new understanding and rediscovery of their corporate calling.
