Brown Abstract

Should a church seek an Intentional Interim Minister? Brown suggests it should following a long term pastorate of over 7 years, a forced termination, church conflict, or a series of short term pastorates (2-3 years). How does a church find an Intentional Interim Minister? The church should contact its Director of Missions, the Church/Minister Relations office of its Baptist state convention, or the Interim Ministry Network. The church and Intentional Interim Minister should negotiate their mutual responsibilities and expectations.
