In response to the Aug. 28 article on purpose-driven churches and pastors, may we just skip over the role of pastors to preach the word of God and go directly to a CEO leader for our church?
We would be amazed at the money we could make with a leader who is a budget whiz, a marketing expert and a great entertainer. I can feel my vision expanding now. Unfortunately, it’s tunnel vision. Out with pastors and preachers, and in with leaders. Can we throw out the deacon body also? There are some of them who think churches should be God-centered rather than growth-centered. How radical and old fashioned can we get?
