When a pastor has served at one church for a long time, they are considered legends. They are held in high regard for having conducted marriage ceremonies, presided over funerals, and led congregants through their most difficult moments.

But when a new pastor is called to serve, they are often met with skepticism or unfair expectations. Many times, they find congregants who are unwilling to be challenged or change.

The Rev. Dr. Marcus D. Allen draws on questionnaires of African American Baptist congregations and interviews with ten pastors called to lead churches in this guide for new pastor’s intent on making a difference. Learn how to:

  • navigate the transition process in a smooth fashion;
  • energize and encourage congregations to move to the next level;
  • help the church regain confidence and overcome the challenges of transition;
  • lead congregants in mourning a former leader who has died or been called to serve elsewhere.

Each pastoral call comes with various transitional challenges, and it’s important to be ready for whatever is ahead. Get guidance to inspire others and achieve success with the lessons in I Got Next.
