Light A Fire: How to Effectively Motivate Volunteers in Your Church

BOOK

Growing the individuals in your congregation is integral to growing your church. Pastors and leaders have a significant and challenging role as they seek to motivate volunteers to contribute enthusiastically and effectively to the mission of the church. The apostle Paul describes this role as being: "To equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up" (Ephesians 4:12) An essential factor in this role is that you, the leader, focus on growing the individuals who have volunteered to work with you. You must see the individual in the midst of the congregation.
