Pastor, We Need to Talk! Gives Alternatives to Terminating Pastors and Church Staff
Strategies in conflict management for churches and conflict resolution for churches should be included in every church's by-laws and policies, but they usually are not. Similar to workplace conflict, many churches become war-zones leaving congregations emotionally, spiritually and even physically wounded because they do not know how to handle church conflict in a Biblical and healthy manner. Presidential want-to-be, Mike Huckabee is a former pastor in Arkansas. In the Deacon magazine in 1992, Huckabee said, "Churches are using termination as the 'weapon of choice' in targeting church staff problems in epidemic proportions." The same is true today.
Conflict management in church is a must if congregations want to be unified and productive in their mission.
Pastor, We Need to Talk! gives congregations common sense strategies, Biblical solutions, and tried-and-true alternatives that work.
Rev. Hester prayerfully, spiritually, and graciously deals with church conflict in a down-to-earth and straight- forward manner. He gives realistic tips in conflict coaching to pastors and congregations that are preventive medicine for church leaders that is redemptive, supportive, and healing.
Managing church conflict and trying to resolve conflict in church families can be over-whelming where there is no plan. Pastor, We Need to Talk!, is well researched with practical and Biblical steps that can prevent church fights and help with compassionate conflict negotiation.
Interpersonal conflict and conflict in churches will always be a reality because congregations are filled with frail human beings, but conflict does not have to be negative, ugly, and destructive. Pastor, We Need to Talk! is pastoral care for churches in conflict, and church leaders that can bring about reconciliation and retooling for ministry.
Pastor, We Need to Talk! helps congregations and pastors communicate under stressful conditions. It is direct, with helpful illustrations from congregational life in how to manage conflict and resolve conflict.
Is your pastor in conflict with fellow church members? Recommend Pastor, We Need to Talk! as a resource to teach your congregation how to manage conflict that includes study questions and a leader's guide for church staff and small groups.
Pastor, We Need to Talk! answers such practical questions as the following:
Should we confront the pastor or just keep quiet to keep peace?
How can we tell when the church is getting into trouble?
Why does the church keep making the same mistakes?
With these easy-to-follow suggestions, you will discover answers to the following questions:
How can church leaders create harmony and keep from getting fired?
How can churches successfully overcome their differences and difficulties?
How can churches keep and nurture their pastor for a lengthy pastorate?
