God's House Ministries
Pastor Ryan McCarty
God's House actually runs entirely on volunteers. Therefore, firing is never really an issue. Pastor said when it comes to someone who is ineffective, they take a chance to sit down with them and talk about what their feelings are about their ministry (they might even meet with other leaders throughout the week so they don't feel like they are the only one being singled out). Often, if they are being ineffective, it is because they aren't motivated to do it. He said they'll try to find another area the volunteer can fit into.
I forgot: the very first thing he said they do is make sure they are not the ones who failed the teacher. He first makes sure that he has done everything he can to equip and empower and help the teacher because it would be a shame to move someone out of a ministry when he was the one at fault.
Even though God's House is run by volunteers, when anything involves money, it is business. When it comes to buying supplies, he expects people not to rip him off or not do a careful job because "it's only for a church." In the same way, if someone is getting paid and they aren't producing, it's not ministry, it's business.
