The pastoral transition is one of the most critical seasons in the life of a church, and mistakes are costly. Yet many people who end up on search teams have never done it before. We’re here to help you navigate this season in such a way that God is glorified and your church is blessed for years to come. Help – We Just Lost Our Pastor was written for church leadership teams and pastoral search teams. The book is brief in order to give a roadmap to church leaders and search team members, and this website contains an additional 150 pages or so of downloadable materials (in Word and Excel formats so you can modify them according to your church’s needs). We recommend that the church purchase enough copies of the book that church leadership team members can read it together in order to understand the process well enough to oversee it, and then pass the books along to the search team when it is formed. For a complete table of contents of those materials, see “Tools.”
