Book Description
Today's pastor has to do more than just preach, teach and visit hospitals and nursing homes. In today's church environment, pastors must have organizational skills. They must know something about money and finances. They must be able to have an articulate conversation with the banker concerning their vision for church growth and expansion. They must understand the many pitfalls of lack of appropriate human resource management involving both paid and volunteer staff. Today's successful pastors understand the importance of post-pulpit activity. In other words, what happens Monday through Friday is just as important as what happens on Sunday. By reading this book, you will be able to begin the process of becoming the Pastor CEO that today's church is requiring. In this book, I share some of my personal triumphs and tragedies along this pastoral walk, in hopes that you will be able to gain some insight from them. While this book can never replace formal and ongoing training, I am sure that you will benefit from taking the time to read and study this manuscript.

Book Description
The emergence of the pastor Chief Executive Officer (CEO) position in churches today has become widely acceptable in Mega and Meta churches. Recent studies have not explored this issue. David Fisher acknowledges that in the 21st century, being a pastor presents major challenges because it leads to professional and personal identity crisis resulting from secular and ecclesial challenges. Studies have supported the idea that there is the need for church leaders to adopt the secular models of leadership and several noted authors have shown that churches today have become like other organizations that have to market their products. This is a problematic interpretation because leadership in modern churches has gone beyond the biblical and theological definitions of becoming shepherds of their flock and servants of God. In the search for an effective pastoral leadership role, this paper will explore the contemporary definition of pastoral leadership and compare it with what the scriptures say concerning the elders and servants of God assigned the duty of being shepherds of their flock.

After 10 years of impacting Executive Pastors around the globe, Defining The Executive Pastor Role has received a major update and expansion with four new chapters and another 10 years of experience found on every page. What is an Executive Pastor (XP)? Are you wired to be an XP? How is an XP different than an Associate Pastor? Should XP's have a degree in pastoral ministry, business, or both? Does your church need an XP? What should a church look for in seeking to fill this often overlooked, undervalued, yet critical position? How does one become an Executive Pastor? Once you get a job, what should your first year look like? How are Executive Pastors different when it comes to matters of the soul? How do you continue to grow in this pivotal role? These and other questions are the focus of this short work on defining the Executive Pastor Role. Written with a brevity designed to allow you to read or skim quickly, you'll still find enough depth to provide meaningful direction and insight. Current and future XP's should read this book for definition. Potential XP's should read this book to clarify their calling. And church leaders considering hiring an XP should read this book before beginning their search. Forward by Mike Bonem, co-author of Leading From the Second Chair and Thriving In the Second Chair.

Book Description
If most pastors were pressed to describe an average day of ministry, they'd have trouble doing it. In a single day, a pastor may fill many different roles in quick succession, from counselor to theologian to student to CEO to custodian (well, let's hope there's usually someone else available to perform that last role). Some roles come more naturally than others, but every pastor wants to perform each role to the best of their ability. In The 10 Key Roles of a Pastor, church consultant Gary L. McIntosh shows pastors how to - understand and juggle their many essential roles - prioritize their time and energy - manage their people's expectations of them - and empower others to take up the vital work of the church body Pastors just starting out in ministry, as well as those who have been at it a while and find themselves overworked and overwhelmed, will value this practical resource. It is also an enlightening read for those in church leadership who would benefit from understanding the pressures their pastor faces on a daily basis.
