About this title

Synopsis

When discussing successful leadership within the church, we must consider the church from two different aspects: the organisms (the people) and the organization (the business side). A common misconception among some new leaders is that the church is solely an organism, leading them to disregard the organizational aspect. Conversely, some approach the church with a business background and attempt to run it strictly as a business, neglecting the organism side.

Either mindset can lead to the failure of a church. In this workbook, we aim to ensure that both the organisms (the people) and the organization (the business side) are considered to provide proper balance and insight. As leaders, we must understand that while we are a religious order, we are also an organization. There is an old saying, "Don't be so heavenly-minded that you're no earthly good."

When it comes to the success of the Christian organization and structure, we must heed this wisdom. Many people balk at the idea of organized religion as a negative, misunderstanding the concept of Theocracy. The notion that God will fulfill all our desires like a fairy godparent is erroneous. We must know who we are as leaders and be capable of organizing, delegating, and working to bring about God's will. Therefore, anointed leadership is imperative.
