Staff Get Together

I'm always fielding questions from pastors about how you build community with your staff. I think the ultimate goal is to not just do ministry together, but to really do life together. And the key is intentionality.

As a lead pastor, you need to invite your staff into your life. One way we do that at NCC is via staff get togethers. So last night we invited the entire staff over to house and I grilled burgers and brats. Then as a celebration of the last day of school for our kids, we went to see Shrek 3.

Good times!

great thoughts, Mark. I'm copying the 2nd paragraph and pasting it to every guy I know. I appreciate a SP saying that (especially since I'm not an SP"

Blessings!

My pastor does a great job of this! I think it's so important on so many levels but it really builds trust in each other when you do life together.
