The Purpose of management in local churches are many. In this brief essay I will focus on some such items as what management research in the church as well as make up, the head, the commission and its primary concern. The “church” plays an essential role in constructing the moral foundations of a democratic society. First, I believe that religious institutions, like other sorts of organizations need a management reboot. I think about management in church where many people are confused as to what management really is. I think it is a building operating under the management of Jesus Christ where people meet and individuals who have accepted Jesus as their savior. So let us associate a general definition of the church need to help support our pastors in managing our parishes by developing stronger business practices. The church is an organism made up of baptizing believers in Christ.

As part of this initiative, parishes may consolidate, and the clergy will take on greater and administrative responsibilities. It is bound together with love the kind of love that passes all understanding. The management in the church is governed by the Word of God. It should be led by spiritual fill and gifted men to help parishioners lead and serve the Church effectively. The leader or pastor is to guide the church in carrying out the commission of Jesus (Matthew 28-19-28). In this commissions first, we must evangelize. For without evangelism the management in the church will eventually

    This week’s reading focused on the elaborate bureaucracy that is the United Methodist Church regarding its many governing bodies from conferences to committees, boards, and agencies. I found it interesting as the concerns over the democratic-like voting processes for each group was discussed. For instance, Tuell highlights the issues surrounding alternate forms for electing bishops, i.e. not using an appointment system, and how this would lead to parochialism (page 121). If each conference elected its own bishop it would also affect the pastoral appointment system and ultimately “allowing a constituency to elect and call its own ‘pastor,’ rather than having one appointed to it.” During my reflection on this topic, I feel there is a higher tendency…

    Douglas Fagerstrom has it right when he states in his book, “The ministry staff member,” “You only have one chance to make a first impression, often an impression is the mold to which others will conform.” As staff members it is imperative that our performance is at a standard worthy of following. Paul in 1 Corinthians encouraged believers to “follow my example, as I follow Christ” (1 Cor. 11:1 NIV). Our goal should be clear.…

    Francis Wayland Analysis

    Francis Wayland’s Notes on the Principles and Practices of Baptist Churches is an extensive anthology of papers, essays, and instructions on Baptist faith and practice. The subjects of the work sprawl from specifically Baptist theological, ethical, and political commitments—i.e., principles—to concrete issues of polity, preaching, ordination, membership, theological curriculum, and sermon preparation—i.e., practices. What unites these essays, of course, is their Baptist distinctiveness, which, for Wayland, might be more particularly rendered as a commitment to the New Testament as the “only rule of faith and practice” (92). Rather than attempting to comment on all the papers assembled here, I will focus on a few select discussions that detail…

    The church is both the body and the bride of Christ; this idea consists of materiality and unity. The church contains four marks and the people must bear these marks of the church both visibly and in the body. The church is one and unified, though this may be hard to grasp considering all the fragments in the church. The church receives holiness, the second mark, because of Christ’s sacrifice. Church is catholic, meaning that it is universal and whole.…

    Pastors must be servant-leaders and not lord it over their flock. Gregory presents important points with much wisdom that pastors would do well to follow as an example. There are some (many) who should not be in pastoral ministry because they lead their flock astray. This is due to the fact that there are pastors who do not have sound doctrine which leads to wolves invading the flock. One must be called into pastoral ministry by God in order to do this important work.…

    The church is the community of God’s children, which is essential for salvation. Whether the community is together in fellowship, as a congregation, or during global ministry, each avenue leads people to salvation. In 7.1 of The Christian Reader it states, “For Irenaeus, the gospel had been corrupted by those outside the church; in order to be assured of the integrity of the Christian proclaimed the apostolic preaching.” This quote emphasizes that the preaching of the gospel is important to its listeners and leads them to spiritual growth, proving that the church plays a necessary role in salvation. Another important role that the church plays in salvation is through baptism.…
