Résumé :	Help for the Small-Church Pastor offers pastors of small churches the guidance and encouragement they need. In this common-sense book, Steve Bierly draws from his eleven years in ministry to show what makes smaller congregations tick. Help for the Small-Church Pastor provides practical insights on uniquely "small-church" issues, such as the characteristics of small churches; how to work effectively as an "insider" within the small church; how God is at work in powerful ways in smaller assemblies; how to motivate your church toward positive change and true growth; how to invest your own time and energy in the right directions; and how your church can reach out to the community in ways that are practical and productive.
Note de contenu :	Why the best-laid plans go awry -- But I followed the instructions! -- Out of the ivory palaces -- The tribe in the pew -- Family resemblances -- One of the gang -- How should we then lead? -- Let it be -- Looking for God in all the wrong places -- Show them the termites -- From no growth to pro-growth -- The Gospel in a word is love.
