You’ll find my latest article in the July/August issue of Rev Magazine. Unfortunately, the online edition only includes a few stories from the actual magazine. You can either email Rev and encourage them to include more content on their website, or you can sneak over to your local Christian bookstore and pick up a copy.

The article is called “The Staff Should Serve the Servants.” Here’s a quick hit to whet your appetite. At Granger this leaders-as-servant model includes the following roles:

• Reminding people constantly that the volunteers do the ministry and the staff supports the volunteers,
• Resourcing the volunteers with appropriate tools like facility space, equipment, leadership support, money, etc.,
• Completing administrative tasks where needed so volunteers can focus on doing the ministry, and
• Being the champion of the church’s mission, vision and values so volunteers remain focused on the right ministry direction.

Sorry, you’ll have to read the rest in Rev.
