Week 11 - Tues. - Josh

Interview with Mr. Daton - Lakeview Wesleyan


1) When New staff comes into a church thinking that they are the solution, or have the solution to all of a churches problems. New staff needs to remain humble and learn about the church, how things are done, and what the deeper problems are, before they can be of any help.

2) When new staff comes in thinking that there will be someone there to do there work. they need to take up leadership right away and do what the church is paying them to do. These are their responsibilities, they can not be passed of on to supporting staff or to people in the congregation.

3) New staff needs to let people do what they have been doing, they don't need to come in and take over everything thinking that they have to do it all. If you push yourself in and take over, those that have been there for along time will get burnt by the situation, the new staff is likely to get burnt out as well.
