by Micah Fries, Jeremy Maxfield, Lewis Center for Church Leadership, DC, October 13, 2020

Description

This online article, adapted from Leveling the Chuch: Multiplying Your Ministry by Giving it Away, helps pastors and ministry leaders discern when and what aspects of ministry they can/should delegate. By offering four diagnostic questions that clarify responsibility, capacity, giftedness, and multiplication, practical ministry guidance is shared that can help ministry leaders magnify their reach. The authors emphasize that effective delegation strengthens ministry by preventing bottlenecks, empowering others, and aligning leaders with the work only they can do. With biblical insight from Moses and Jethro, they promote humility, discernment, and shared leadership.
