Week 3: Attend a Board Meeting

--Trenton Prieshoff

God's House Ministries
about 3 hours

The decision-making model seems to be similar to the Quaker style. In all these meetings I have been to (I went to them all last semester as well), I never really heard any kind of "voting" on whether the church ought to do something or not. For the most part, someone brings up an idea and as long as they are willing to lead it themselves, no one objects. Even so, people weigh in their thoughts and support before the final "okay" is given.
Other decisions that involve everyone will be discussed in much the same way but as for the final decision, we look at if everyone agrees.
