About this title

Synopsis

We have learned from nature that animal and plant life thrives when all the systems of their surroundings are in harmony. The same can be said for human institutions. When the organizational systems of human institutions are in harmony, the organization thrives. This book identifies the interaction of eight organizational components that promote creative ministry in the Christian church setting. The author combines biblical study, management theory and hard-earned experience to help church leaders understand and use organizational systems to maximize their ministry. Connect the dots of these eight components for effective ministry in the 21st century.

About the Author

Peter Rudowski takes seriously the command of the New Testament to "go into the world and preach the good news." As the pastor of a suburban Lutheran church in Cincinnati, Ohio, his ministry has focused on making "Word and Sacrament available to the greatest number of people." In the process he has learned the fundamentals of solid ministry based on Purpose, Vision and Strategic Planning. As a result he learned to teach others through a lively intern program and now through the written word. He teaches seminars, mentors pastors, and leads congregational workshops using the theory and practice acquired in 33 years of parish ministry. Connecting the Dots brings together practical advice for far-reaching ministry.
