Christ loves the church with an infinite, eternal love that is beyond our comprehension. Unfortunately, the church often doesn’t function the way Christ intended. Many Christians fail to understand that God’s ways are not their ways (Isaiah 55:8-9) and when we attempt to do God’s work the world’s way, the results are dissatisfying and even damaging. When a church seeks a new pastor, they stand at a crossroads. How that decision is handled will determine the church’s future. This guide was written to help you seek your next pastor in ways that will both protect the health of the church and give great hope and blessing for the future!
“Finally, a book on the pastor search process which combines the spiritual and the practical! Blackaby and Fisher have put together solid wisdom and good advice for churches who find themselves seeking a new pastor complete with helpful guidance for prayer, procedures, and interviewing potential candidates. I highly recommend it!”
– Dr. David Johnson, Executive Director, Arizona Southern Baptist Mission Network
