Church staff

    Here are just random aphorisms and comments to bring out the important issues about staff relationships in a somewhat stark fashion. This is a topic that is written on constantly in books and articles. Their advice is almost always good and on target. Read up on the subject.
  • If you are not “head of staff” remember that fact.
  • Second guessing other staff members is an invitation for them to second guess you.
  • Avoid office politics as if it were a blazing fire, otherwise you will get burned.
  • There will always be trials and tribulations and hostile people, no matter where you are or what you are doing. (One of my favorite aphorisms is: “The great thing about being a martyr today is that they don't use real arrows.”)
