Here's another thought-provoking quote from How To Break Growth Barriers by Carl George. On the changing role of the senior pastor under PBG:"...the senior pastor must understand a certain role change is necessary to be an effective leader of staff: from being a manager to being a leader.
What is the difference? Leaders set a direction; managers outline the steps to the destination. Many of you will have to do both jobs to some extent. But most churches (and businesses) are overmanaged and underled. Pastors are more obsessed with doing things right than with doing the right things. They give more attention to efficiency than to effectiveness." (p. 155)
Pastors, how do those words challenge you?
