The Pastor's Exit: The Dynamics of Involuntary Termination

In this book, Dr. Menno Epp draws on his careful analyses of the dynamics involved in the involuntary terminations of pastors to suggest ways that pastor-congregation relationships can be nurtured and evaluations of pastors handled in a redemptive way. Epp believes that conflict and anger in a congregations's relationship with its pastor is to be expected. His intention is to provide both congregation and pastor with help for making peace and reconciliation a reality in congregational life.
