Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:Pastors need to develop a plan for effective, extended ministry. Researchers studying the long-term pastorate (LTP) have identified specific practices that can enrich effective ministry. By capitalizing on these practices, pastors can strengthen their service while personally benefiting from increased self-actualization and stability. This article also explores some of the pitfalls of the LTP and strategies for managing problematic issues. These issues include: wrong assumptions, lack of personal growth, ministry burnout, conflict management, and the phenomenon termed “managing the gap.” Practical approaches for addressing these challenges may assist readers in understanding and working toward a fruitful LTP.
