Concering COGOPs recommendation on Ministerial Evaluation

Postby Poimen » August 13th, 2008, 9:59 am

Just my 2 cents...

The concept is good, but the divergent concern could be mostly solved, I think, if plurality of leadership was instituted at all levels of church operation. That is to say regarding the local church, if each church established a plurality of elders who shared the pastorate with the lead pastor, they would then review each other as peers in ministry.

I think the direction we are going with more plurality of leadership, and more relational structure it will work. The fears seem to be mainly looking at abuse of the system and don't fit with the intent.

as i always have to remind my team at work: you can't engineer a platform and process with procedures for the exceptions. we can consider the exceptioons, but we have no business engineering for them. nothing would ever get accomplished.

if we were to take all "what-if's" and abusives, there would be no procedures in a give process, and there would be no centrality of commonality.
Thanks, Brent "RamboPreacher" Hoefling
