Pastors need to know
for working with younger
emerging ministers
How to get the best and the brightest to work

While there are “boomers in every generation” and all generalizations are partly false, I have a few generalizations to make about the young ministers joining church staffs. Boomers who were the first generation of senior pastors who themselves had once served as youth pastors or staff pastors often assume they are experts at working with staff. Wrong. Generational needs change. Boomers assume “They’re just like we were” which is the biggest mistake we make. They aren’t. <
