Change is integral to any ministry, but, as any church leader can attest, it is very rarely received without resistance. Change is difficult and it is often scary. An effective leader must anticipate the concerns that may arise and communicate the change in such a way that will ease the transition. And the first few steps are the most important, as people come to understand and take ownership of the vision.
This 18-page resource will help you get everyone on board as you introduce change in your church.

I see these materials very relevant and important for us ministering in developing countries. However, it is difficult to access them since we have to pay some amount. Is there the chance to access them free of charge or can you look for opportunity to sponsor at least some of us that are interested in these vital materials? Thank you and God bless you!!
