Tuesday Report #9 Mistakes Ministers Make

On Wednesday March 18th, I interview Emily Vermilya. Emily is the Worship Arts Director at College Wesleyan Church. Emily told me 3 mistakes a new church staffer should avoid making in their first job.

1. Comparison - Do not compare you previous ministry experience to your current ministry experience; no 2 churches are the same.

2. Patience - Make a conclusive judgment about the new church you are at at least one year into the church. Do not make an evaluation too quickly.

3. Change - Do not change/implement too much too fast. The first year be a student, take notes, make observations, then later on begin implementing small changes.
