    About this ebook

    David Biser helps us navigate the change that is inevitable in church leadership. The reflection questions at the end of each chapter will help you process past changes and better prepare you for leading into the future. If youre planning any changes, you need to read Navigating the Waves of Change.

    Dave Ferguson, Lead Pastor - Community Christian Church Lead Visionary - NewThing

    In Navigating the Waves of Change, you will discover key principles that every church will need to incorporate no matter what change is happening. The book is written for pastors and church leaders alike by a pastor who has lived through significant changes. Since change is happening every day, you are most likely asking questions about how to navigate through the waves in a way that will take you into a bright future.

    While the timeless message of Jesus Christ does not change, congregations need to change from time to time to reach those who God has called to. Being willing to make those changes means the difference between congregational life or death.
