DOWNLOAD EBOOKMost churches have sought out a new pastor many times, yet search committees often feel as though they are inventing the process from scratch. In The Pastoral Search Journey, John Vonhof provides detailed guidance for search committees to ensure a good match between pastor and congregation. This is Vonhof's third book about the pastoral search -- but the first to discuss interim pastors, transitions between pastors, and the use of the Internet and digital media. Vonhof advises congregational leaders on establishing the search committee; ensuring the congregation is cared for during the pastoral vacancy; conducting the congregational self-study and creating an information packet; finding, communicating with, and interviewing candidates; determining selection criteria as well as evaluating and recommending candidates; managing call negotiations; and finally welcoming the congregation s new pastor. Sample letters, forms, and other tools are provided.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhether it is road rage, rage from politicians, rage and intimidation within the corporate world, anger within families, anger in schools, vitriol and anger between retail clerk and customer, and sadly anger within churches - we are a society engulfed in anger. Peace has been taken from the earth and our hearts have grown callous. We are poisoned by anger and we are only too glad to share the poison. But there is hope, for there is another Way; it is the way of Jesus, it is the way of His peace. This is not just counter cultural, this is God-cultural - it is the culture of God. A LETTER TO A FRIEND - REFLECTIONS ON PEACE AND ANGER guides the reader away from the way of anger and into the Way of Peace, equipping the reader with thinking and strategies to combat the anger within us and the anger without us - so that instead of contributing to the culture of anger, we can learn to be agents of peace.
