If you are involved in church, either as a volunteer or as a staff person, please help Anne by taking part in the survey & spreading the word.
I know I say this a lot, but I plan to write more about this later. For now, let me just say that "Better to burn out than to fade away" is a horrific way to live & minister... yet I've watched too many folks inside the church do just that. And this isn't just a "professional Christian" problem - volunteers watch the stupid way we choose to live & follow us right over the cliff like lemmings. It's time for this stuff to get out in the open.
BTW, I found this thanks to the guys at Church Marketing Sucks... as usual, they're perched on the bleeding edge of ministry issues.
