Shepherding the Institution: Micro-Cases in Church Administration (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798253170854)

Shepherding the Institution presents several hypothetical micro-cases drawn from across a wide range of Christian denominational contexts, including Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, mainline Protestant, African Methodist Episcopal, Church of God in Christ, Assemblies of God, evangelical, charismatic, Baptist, independent, multi-site, and Global South Pentecostal churches. Each case places the reader in the role of a decision-maker, whether pastor, board chair, diocesan officer, or denominational administrator, confronting a live management problem with incomplete information, competing values, and real organizational stakes. Organized into eight thematic parts covering governance, leadership transition, finance, human resources, conflict and crisis, organizational development, digital transformation, and multi-unit management, the book applies established management theory to situations shaped by mission, polity, doctrine, and congregational culture.
