5 Minute Mentoring: Leading Change More Effectively
Leading change in a local church is a tough task. Just about any pastor has one of these stories:
- a needed change that crashed and burned after it was presented to a church board…
- a “church boss” who couldn’t bear to see their pet program canned…
- a brilliant plan plan shot down by failure to process it properly with key leaders…
An indisputable fact: Change COSTS. Financially. Spiritually. Emotionally. Chronologically.
So how can we help ourselves know which changes to take on, and help people process them?
Here’s a helpful chart shared with me by my “brother in the Gospel” Darrell Underwood (MS, USAF, Ret.), who pastors a church plant in Clovis, NM called Servant’s Heart Chapel. From his years of work in Process Improvement for the Air Force.

That’s some good stuff! The hardest thing to do often, is to “KILL” that favorite project that is having NO positive impact on the churches mission!
