Tips for a Successful Pastoral Transition - Dr. Lee Kricher & Ron Huntley | Ep. 133 | Huntley Leadership Podcast

Pastoral transitions are something that every church will face at some point. Navigating these critical moments of transition can be challenging, not only for the leaders involved but also for the communities that you lead.

 

Dr. Lee Kricher is the author of Seamless Pastoral Transition – an incredible resource that many church leaders across traditions have turned to in order to find support through their own pastoral transitions. On this week's podcast, Ron speaks with Dr. Lee about this powerful book, and together, they unpack a few of the book's key principles that are helping church leaders transition well!

 

About the Book:

"A Seamless Pastoral Transition is a leadership transition in which a pastoral vacancy is avoided by a planned overlap in service of the outgoing pastor and the incoming pastor. When implemented with sound leadership transition principles, a Seamless Pastoral Transition can ensure the continuity of a church's mission and maintain a church's positive momentum.

 

In addition to case studies from a variety of churches, this book covers 3 Leadership Transition Imperatives to embrace and 6 Leadership Transition Pitfalls to avoid. If you are a pastor, a denominational executive, or a church board member, one of your highest priorities must be planning for pastoral transitions with great diligence. If you agree, then this book is written for you."
