Job Descriptions and Leadership Training is a handbook for congregations to develop leaders as a vital part of their discipleship system.
The first portion of the book provides a framework for a nominating committee to build a culture of leadership development, including suggestions for ministry organization. It contains an exploration of both biblical roots and contemporary research for training leaders.
The second part of the book has one-page job descriptions for positions suggested in the Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. Purchasers receive permission to reproduce individual job description pages for use in church workshops. Each job description includes the following information:
- Ministry Result Expected from This Position
- Spiritual Gifts and Qualifications Helpful for This Position
- Responsibilities of the Position
- Tips for Getting Started
- Resources for Help, Including People and Websites
A great resource for helping United Methodist church leaders understand the difference between job and ministry!
