WHY CHURCHES DON'T NEED SENIOR PASTORS [Blog Series]

My friend Richard Jacobson fires the opening shot in this upcoming blog series "Who Makes Decisions In An Organic Church?".

This series looks at how organic churches make decisions without a "Senior Pastor" in place.

Here's the complete schedule, with links to participating blogs:

He tries to inspire fellow believers who are captivated by the church but disillusioned by today’s consumer-Christian church model to follow the longing of their hearts: to step outside the institutional church box and enter into genuine church community.
