Why are Churches of Christ Losing Ministers?
Over the last year various news and ministry outlets have reported on an acute shortage of preachers and ministers in Churches of Christ. It seems social and political angst may be a factor, as well as certain trends among many Churches of Christ. In today's episode I discuss some reasons for this minister shortage and I offer a few tentative suggestions for how we can address this growing problem.
To find the articles I mention in the episode, following these links:
