Churches Without Pastors (Part 1): Becoming a Church a Man Would Want to Pastor

Monday, April 19, 2021 | Guest: David Shoaf and Paul Stevenson |
Topics: Church Life

Is your church without a pastor? How can you prepare to call the next man? Churches often react to the shortcomings of their previous pastor by swinging the pendulum in the opposite direction. In this podcast, Marshall Fant discusses with two GFA interim pastors, David Shoaf and Paul Stevenson, some practical ways a church can prepare for a new pastor. Pastor Shoaf has over 45 years of experience pastoring full-time, while Pastor Stevenson has over 40 years of ministry experience.
