Strategic Church Administration

Description

Author-Stan DeKoven

For many administration has become a “dirty word.”  Most of us would like to devote ourselves to prayer and the ministry of the Word (Acts 6:1-6) exclusively.  Yet, church ministry requires administrative skills and capabilities.  Without them, as the Apostles found the church cannot fully function.

You will note that there is provided here a model for incorporation of your ministry. It is provided for general information, not specific implementation.  It is strongly recommended that, if you need assistance in incorporation, that you contact a qualified ministry consultant.

Church management and administration must flow from a biblical model and understanding of church government.  Government flows from Christ as head of the church; through the Holy Spirit, the administrator of the church through gifts/offices/five-fold ministry; through elders/deacons and the ministry of all believers (every joint supplying).  These concepts are key to our understanding of Strategic Church Administration.
