Changeover Zone : Successful Pastoral Transitions
$17.99Add to cartUtilizing the metaphor of a relay race, The Changeover Zone provides step-by-step, hands-on application of techniques and principles that bring about successful pastoral transitions-passing the baton from one pastor to her/his successor. While the concepts apply to any type of pastoral transition, the techniques are specifically designed to improve the transitions when new churches are going through their first pastoral change and when churches are receiving a new pastor following a long-tenured pastor. The first section teaches the key action steps for each party involved in a transition; the second section focuses specifically on new churches going through their first pastoral transition and; the third section focuses more on long-tenured pastorates and draws the distinctions and similarities between existing churches and new churches going through a pastoral change. Drawing on years of experience the authors introduce the reader to best practices that any church, pastor, or denominational office can implement.
