MIN-587 Leading the 21st Century Church
This course deals with the planning missteps that bring growing churches to a halt. It deals with strategic issues such as: when and how to introduce new ideas, meeting organizational needs without stifling the spiritual needs of a congregation, how and when to add multiple worship services, prayer strategies to keep the unchurched in focus, why building too soon or too big will stunt congregational growth, planning realistic budgets for growth without overestimating potential, how to "cell" a growing congregation. The course makes use of over two dozen case studies to explore the application of strategic management principles to the growing congregation.
