The Transitional Period In The Life of A Church

The period between pastors is treated by many church members as the “hold things together, keep things going” period. For nominal church members it is likely to be the “wait and see” period. With effective transitional leadership, the period between pastors can be very productive-a time of growth in personal and congregational awareness, renewal, and celebration; and a time when people are attracted by congregational worship, evangelism, fellowship, and discipleship, and personal and family ministries of the church.

Churches passing from the leadership of one pastor to another may be well served by transitional pastors who help the passage be as positive and constructive as possible, gaining momentum and productivity in the process of change.
