Hit the Bullseye

by Paul Borden

Denominations in the United States were started to assist congregations, Local churches realized that often they could do more together than they could separately. For many years denominations provided invaluable services to congregations in missions, education, and church life. This is no longer the case. As many congregations diminish in size, they find themselves with aging constituencies and experience a decline in mission dollars. They also find denominations impotent in producing change, health and growth. Denominations respond in various ways to this situation. This book offers three key strategies for change: training, recruitment of outside leaders, and pastoral mentoring.
