Typically, the board hires the CEO based on qualification, values, abilities and character etc. The CEO will then assemble his/her team, training them and making sure that they all got the company’s core message and have a very good understanding to then spear head their own area of responsibilities.
Thinking about a church. Senior pastors, deacons are selected very carefully, making sure their qualifications, their doctrine knowledge, their own faith and ultimately, their heart conditions are looked upon. How do churches pick volunteer leaders though? Seems most of the places simply pick because they have a huge need and rarely screens.
Kinda dangerous isn’t it?
It literally can be blind leading the blind.
Kinda same with evangelism too. I recently heard some one explaining why good people die early, or why bad things happen to good people.
‘It’s like you going to the flower shop. You pick the prettiest flower first. God is the same. He picks the good people first to go to heaven to be with Him’
What does your church do when selecting ministry leaders?
