Too often, the same few faithful people end up volunteering their services in the church, while the majority seems content to watch the action – or lack thereof – from the sidelines. But there is hope for leaders who find themselves in this situation.
‘Volunteers for Today’s Church’ shows ministry leaders how to motivate the stand-by crowd to start playing the game. And although just getting players to sign up is a major task, seasoned coaches know that this is just the beginning. Determining the strengths of each volunteer is crucial for a strong team. Dennis Williams and Kenneth Gangel here provide practical advice on how to dovetail a volunteer’s gifts witha ministry that really fits. Included are tips on personal recruiting, teamwork, supervising, training, and keeping workers motivated.
