Mobile Church

Does your church meet in a school, auditorium, or VFW hall? Does your ministry move around a lot? The folks at Church on Wheels specialize in putting together all the equipment that your church needs into a single trailer which is ready for you to unpack and pack as needed. And the cost is a lot less than you might think.

What I like about this company is that they seem to understand the reality faced by many buildingless churches. Instead of "making do", churches can effectively and efficiently convert the space that they rent into an attractive, functional worship environment.

Clergy Killers

I first read this article over ten years ago, and it is never far from my mind. Clergy Killers by G. Lloyd Rediger first appeared in the August 1993 issue of Clergy Journal. In it, Dr. Rediger deals with the phenomenon of "Clergy Killers", people who maliciously persecute clergy. A "Clergy Killer" is not someone who is merely needy, nor are they people who simply have a personality clash with their pastor. "Clergy Killers" are, in a word, evil. They are people who maliciously set out to undermine church leadership and then, when they have accomplished that goal, go in for the kill. They have destroyed many good ministers and many good churches.

Just because you may be operating in a "non-traditional" ministry does not make you immune to these people. Read and learn.
