3 Pastoral Transitions Learning Foundational Key Question
Why did New Church Specialties dream, research, design, recruit personnel, field test and launch our Transitional Interim Pastor Services ministry? 3

4 Pastoral Transitions Learning Foundation Behind TIPS Development
1000’s of pastoral transitions annually in the US Many are not done well and churches & pastors suffer needlessly The need to develop a process to lead churches from anxiety to anticipation Pastoral transition is a great time to prepare the church for the new day 4

5 Pastoral Transitions Learning Foundation Behind TIPS Development
Churches who have had a long term pastor (10 years or more) find great benefit from the TIPS process Often churches need time to determine the qualities and skills needed in the next pastor and TIPS provides that time. Churches in crisis benefit from the TIPS process 5

6 Book on Pastoral Transitions published by Leadership Network
This is one of the key books that has been published on the specialized subject of long-term pastoral transitions planning 6

7 Elephant in the Boardroom published by Leadership Network
“The time has come for a ministry of professional transition consultants to provide the expertise that is necessary in today’s environment. The transition process is too critical to leave to chance… 7

8 Elephant in the Boardroom published by Leadership Network
…The cost of a poorly managed leadership transition justifies the financial outlay required to have a successful one.” Elephant in the Boardroom © 2004 8

9 Pastoral Transitions Learning Transitional Interim Pastor Services
After extensive research, design, recruitment of personnel, field testing and holding several national training events, we believe the TIPS tools and process are one of the most helpful services NCS has ever produced. 9

10 Today…What Are You Thinking About Your Church?
What is going to happen in the days ahead? Can we regain our momentum? Will we have sufficient income? Will we find the right pastor? Can we ever get a majority of people to share agenda harmony?

11 But...To know what GOD is thinking!
I Want To Suggest That Our Greatest Need Is Not …To Know What We’re Thinking But...To know what GOD is thinking! Our future planning as church leaders MUST be spiritual.

12 Knowing God’s Thoughts...
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him…BUT God has revealed it to us by His Spirit.” (1 Corinthians 2:9-10)

13 Knowing God’s Thoughts...
“The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a person except the person’s spirit within them?” (1 Corinthians 2:10-11)

14 Knowing God’s Thoughts...
“In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.” (1 Cor 2:11-12)

15 Knowing God’s Thoughts...
“This is what we speak, in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truth in spiritual words… we have the mind of Christ.” (1 Corinthians 2:13,16)

16 God’s Thoughts...God’s Plan for a Transitional Church
Eight Basic Principles We have the Holy Spirit The Spirit knows God’s thoughts We can know what God is thinking, especially His Will during this time of transition for our church

17 God’s Thoughts...God’s Plan for a Transitional Church
Eight Basic Principles God is more anxious to reveal His Will than we are to seek it! (Luke 11:13) Planning is a VERY spiritual process Jesus taught the value of planning (Luke 14:28-33)

18 God’s Thoughts...God’s Plan for a Transitional Church
Eight Basic Principles People can run with a vision and a plan that is written down (Habakkuk 2:2-4) A key to achieving God’s will & plan is to seek it, and affirm it with godly leaders and other believers within the church as agenda harmony is slowly built.

19 1 Chronicles 28:19 “’All this,’ David said, “I have in writing from the hand of the Lord upon me, and he gave me understanding in all the details of the plan.”
