Replacing People

If you wondered where your next new office-bearer is coming from, here's my own story to encourage you. When I first started in urban ministry, we had twenty-four staff and office-bearers. During my first year of ministry, nineteen of them resigned -- leaving a grand total of five. That is, eighty percent resigned. However, God had already prepared the replacements. It was not a big challenge, and the replacements were good ones -- the Church grew stronger. OBSERVATION: I saw the resignations as a natural changing of the guard. None of the resignations was attached to a significant problem.
