Abstract
ABSTRACT This article reports on the findings of an empirical study of pastors concerning their perceived preparation for church management. While most pastors perceived that their spiritual preparation for ministry was adequate, most reported that their management training was inadequate. Pastors also perceived that their success as pastors was related to their ability to manage and lead their churches. Based on these findings, we recommend that pastoral education programs include appropriate management and leadership courses, that continuing management education be made available to pastors, and that pastors be provided with management and leadership support.
