Send Me Your Church Job Descriptions Please
Posted by: | CommentsEvery now and then (and increasingly) I get requests by church business administrators or pastors looking for a job description for a communications director.
As evidenced by the growing attendance at MinistryCOM and with big churches just getting even bigger, churches and pastors are recognizing the need for this vital role …
So, I’d like to create a resource page here with job descriptions that those looking to develop this position can download, print them off and customize it for their unique needs.
Here’s what I’d like you to do … send me a Word document with your job description (and include permission to do so) and I’ll create a page here for them all to be downloaded in one handy place. If you’d rather your church name not be on it, please indicate that (or just take off your church’s information).

Faith in the Workplace: Ask a Career Coach Some Good Questions
Posted by: | CommentsOver the past month or so, I’ve been working with Yahoo! columnist and blogger Penelope Trunk … career coach extraordinare. She’s been a blast to work with … and just seeing the stats from her blog has made my eyes cross sometimes.
Well … she’s just released a new book called Brazen Careerist: The New Rules for Success.
Anyway, I was talking with her about doing a Q&A on the topic of work and career and the intersection of that with faith and spiritual values … and I thought I’d open up the brainstorming of ideas to the readers of this blog.
I think it’d be fun to poise some good questions to her about how a person of deep convictions — enter the evangelical Christian — can “successfully” live out your faith and values in the workplace.
Also … I’d love to hear some questions from pastors that they’d love to get the unique perspective of a “career coach” … both the questions and answers will be interesting to hear I’m sure.
Let’s be general about the questions. But also think about different scenarios a Christ-follower in particular might face. And the whole subject of “faith in the workplace.”
Send me an email with your ideas for questions … or fill out the contact form below.
