This book is about leadership, management, and organizational structure as it applies to the church. This book is based on the author's observation and surveys from some of the members of four churches. It is an evaluation of how leadership and management, or the lack of the same, affect the operation of the church. It is this author's belief that church is not a business and should never be mistaken for a business. However, the paraphernalia of business such as leadership, management, and organizational principles, should be a part of every pastor's tool bag. Chapter one looks at the Bible example of leadership, management, and organizational principles. The Bible has several examples of God's leader engaging the principles used in business to accomplish the work of God. This author would never suggest that church and business should be operated the same. However, the church as marketed by Bible examples, should employ the principles of leadership. Chapter two is the results of an evaluation of four churches. The churches are named First Church, Second Church, Third Church, and Fourth Church. The results are based on surveys and the observations of this author. The information was collected and charted to give a picture of the leadership, management, and organizational principles found in each church. Chapter three looks at leadership and some of the factors that affect it. This chapter combines the information gather with the principles of leadership in order to determine the effectiveness of each organization studied. Chapter four looks at management. This chapter covers management issues such as budgeting and resources. It also looks at forecasting and directing. Chapter five looksat organizational structure and how it affects the operation of the church. It looks at the leadership structure and the authority of the pastor.
