Jess and Thom will answer listener questions at various points throughout the year. This week, we will answer several questions on two of our podcasts.
-
- Should I lead the elders to fire our pastor, who is also my brother-in-law?
- I am leading my church in revitalization. How much should I focus on the members’ internal spiritual growth compared to evangelism?
- What are the trends in streaming services for churches?
- What should be my priority in the order of hiring staff?
- How are churches deciding to fund organizations outside the church?
