Church Administration, Management and Leadership - Guidelines and Free Resources

If we can combine depth in the Word and the Spirit, with good skillful organization and administration, our churches and ministries will become an explosive force for God, maximizing reach, impact, and service to many. The converse is also true, that without proper administration and organization, a church or ministry will struggle and at times, even come to a halt. In church and Christian ministry context, we use ‘administration’ to refer to the broad area of activity that support and undergird the ministry of the Word, worship, prayer, nurture and equipping of believers and the proclamation of the Gospel. Administration, in the context of the church, is a ministry to the Lord and His people, and not just a function.

We consider Church and ministry administration an art, a science, a spiritual gift. As an art we develop and nurture certain innate traits and characteristics, through learning and experience, and use these abilities to accomplish their work. Example: working with people, understanding people, being attentive (sensitive) to people’s needs, timing, etc. As a science we learn, study and develop the skills to organize, plan, establish process, budget, review performance, evaluate data, analyze, make decisions, etc. As a spiritual gift we believe God anoints, empowers, inspires ideas, guides, gives wisdom to those in this Church administration, management and leadership.

We trust these sample documents will be useful to your church and ministry. You are welcome to adapt these as you see best for your church and Christian ministry. These documents/resources are periodically updated as we improve what we do here at All Peoples Church.
