LEWIS MAY 2013 ABSTRACT Developing a New Generation of Pastors at Grace Point Community Church Terrence M. Lewis Doctor of Ministry School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary 2013 The purpose of this project is to develop a strategy helping those who desire to enter pastoral ministry at Grace Point Community Church (GPCC). Elements of this strategy will include identifying their calling, developing the necessary elements to become a pastor, and then exposing them to a variety of ministry styles by shadowing seasoned pastors throughout the community. This paper begins with a description of the local communities surrounding GPCC. It explains the unique decade of growth that Lewis Center, Ohio has experienced. It also explains how that growth is creating opportunities for expansion for GPCC into surrounding communities that will necessitate a new generation of God-called and well- prepared pastors. The second section reviews several books that address the relevant biblical and theological concepts regarding the topics of ecclesiology, the pastoral calling, pastoral development and ecumenical cooperation and unity. The second section also presents a concise theology of both pastoral leadership and pastoral development. The final section focuses on the strategy itself as it is built upon the theological discoveries of the second section. It presents a pathway for selecting, developing, and commissioning future pastors at Grace Point Community Church. It also presents ways to evaluate and assess the pathways.

IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION OF OUTCOMES 101 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION 114 APPENDICES 116 BIBLIOGRAPHY 138 v INTRODUCTION When a church has a vision to grow and expand, one of the greatest challenges is to identify and develop future leaders. This challenge includes the recognition and training of future pastors or elders that will be ready to start new congregations. The common approach is to select the most talented, successful, or popular in the congregation and ask them to participate in a leadership development path. This approach seems to fail more than succeed and can cause chaos and frustration to everyone involved. The common approach is to only use the leadership development material the denomination or church association has used for years and not expose future leaders to the leadership development ideas of other church denominations and associations. This approach leads to an unnecessarily narrow and ignorant understanding of church leadership and development. The common approach in training future elders is to prepare them to serve on a board of counsel. This involves having a solid understanding of theology and character that reflects the qualities required for eldership in the New Testament books of 2 Timothy and Titus. Although these preparations are foundational and valuable, they provide what is necessary for helping counsel a current church pastoral team, but lack what is necessary in building a leadership vision for starting new congregations. There has to be a better way. There has to be a way to help identify and train future church leaders that will include a theological foundation, a depth of character and a set of ministry skills to prepare them for future congregational expansion. 1 The purpose of this Ministry Focus Paper is to create a strategy identifying the calling and development of future pastors for Grace Point Community Church in order to realize its dream of expansion with future multi-site locations. This Ministry Focus Paper establishes pathways for the development of theological understanding, character depth, and ministry skills. To expand pastoral trainees in their understanding of these concepts beyond what they have observed at Grace Point alone, the strategy includes a way to be mentored by several other pastors and ministries from churches throughout the community. Having a pipeline of well-developed pastors will be key in reaching the dream God has given to expand His Kingdom beyond our current location and into surrounding communities. Grace Point Community Church is a church of 600 attendees in the central-Ohio suburb of Lewis Center. The church began in the fall of 2000 with a handful of families and in its eleven years has expanded from a hundred people renting space in an elementary school to purchasing land and building a church facility that has allowed it to grow to include three weekend services. The church has grown to five full-time pastoral staff that serving along with three non-staff elders on the elder leadership board. I am the founding and lead pastor. Grace Point Community Church has a vision to have a greater influence in the surrounding communities and would like to expand using a multi-site strategy allowing us to multiply church services in different locations. This has created a need for a more effective identification and training process for future church planters and leaders. The 2 challenge we face is to create a new process that will both prepare and inspire these future church planters and leaders. Part One of this paper describes the ministry context. It begins with a brief history of the community Grace Point serves including its religious history and current community values. It also focuses on some of the ministry challenges that these community values create. A description of the surrounding communities is provided to describe the similarities and differences for future multi-site expansion. A description of the history and background of Grace Point Community Church is presented. This includes a description of the association of churches that Grace Point belongs to; Great Commission Association of Churches (GCC). A timeline is included describing the dream of birthing Grace Point as well as its growth since its birth in 2000. The historical background highlights the leadership identification and development strategies that have evolved over the past decades both in the association of churches as well as Grace Point itself. A brief description is given of unique relationships that have developed with a dozen churches in the Lewis Center community that opened up new and exciting ways to approach expanded leadership development of future pastors and ministry leaders. A description of what the role of these community pastors in mentoring our future pastors and their multi-site congregations is also included. Part One concludes with a description of the future vision for expansion through a multi-site strategy. Part Two of the Ministry Focus Paper contains three chapters. Chapter 3 reviews several books that investigate the relevant biblical and theological foundations for the areas of ecclesiology, pastoral callings, pastoral development, and ecumenical 3 cooperation and unity. Chapter 4 offers a theology of pastoral leadership. This chapter highlights the role leadership plays in God’s develop of his children and disciples of Christ throughout the Bible. It considers the theology of a pastoral calling as well as the biblical qualifications of the pastoral role in the church. The various biblical roles a pastor is called to fill are also discussed. Chapter 5 presents a concise theology of pastoral development.

  • Acknowledgments Many People, for Many Years, Have Discussed The
    Acknowledgments Many people, for many years, have discussed the need for a record of the Brethren assemblies in North America. David Rodgers, long associated with Emmaus Bible College and assemblies in Iowa and elsewhere, is one of these, and is the person who has done most to promote and encourage the writing of this book. He has provided continuing encouragement and has been an invaluable help in identifying and contacting people who could provide information, and urging their cooperation. Emmaus Bible College, in the persons of Chancellor Dan Smith, Librarian John Rush, and several of the faculty, has been indispensable to this project: the Chancellor with his encouragement; the Librarian with his willingness to put the resources of the library at my disposal and for answering lots of questions; and the faculty who in several ways have encouraged me along the way and critiqued portions of the manuscript at various stages of writing. Many respondents to the questionnaires sent to them have done much more than provide information about their own assemblies; they have provided assistance in the form of information and contacts for other assemblies. Many people have patiently responded several times to my repeated questioning. When I have been reasonably satisfied with a draft for a certain region of the continent, I have sent it to a reviewer for comments, corrections, and additions. The assistance provided by the reviewers has been invaluable. Many reviewers have supplied a great amount of additional information and have obviously spent a considerable amount of time and energy in doing so. To all these people, indispensable to this project, I give my heartfelt thanks.

Amen! What a month January was! The Board Retreat was the most uplifting experience! On behalf of the Board members, I want to thank you, the people of Grace, for your support in making the retreat possible. It was monies and time well spent! Nine individuals came together, most not knowing what to expect, but through prayer and worship, there was wonderful sharing and involvement by each and every member. There was a time of goal setting, a time of sharing and openness, a time of fellowship and bonding as a Board. In the evaluations, the comment made most was that we were all clear on the expectations and the priorities and there is much work that needs to be done. But thanks be to God for the presence of His Holy Spirit that touched us all as we worshiped and prayed together!! There was a wonderful presentation on the Grace Cemetery by Allen Biggerstaff and Reid Lynch as they shared the deep and meaningful history of the cemetery. There is much responsibility that goes with the management of the cemetery and we will be intentional as we address those needs in 2017.
