Transitional ministry has many of the tasks of settled ministry, but with more urgency, especially if the congregation is anxious. This can lead the transitional minister over functioning by doing things the congregation can do themselves. And yet, effective transitional ministry that leaves the congregation in a healthier place, requires that the congregation have ownership for ministries past and present, as well as new ideas. In this episode, Rev. Liz Miller, shares her experience with this challenge in her first-time position as a transitional minister in this episode titled, “Using a Laidback Approach as a First-Time Transitional Minister.”
