Preparing for Change Reaction : How to Introduce Change in Your Church

Many churches resist change because they fear that changing methodologies will require a change in core beliefs or values. Whitesel explodes that myth by offering conclusive evidence that God himself frequently changes the methods by which he deals with people without changing his holy character. This practical guide is designed to be used by church leaders with their boards as a tool for negotiating needed changes. The author compellingly makes the case that new methodology can and must be embraced without altering a churchs beliefs or mission. He then offers a series of exercises to be undertaken jointly by church leaders that will result in the production of a master plan for managing change effectively in the local church.
