A Developing Process, Prophetic Minsterial Alignment

The objective of this project is to develop a process that assists assistant/associate pastors in building prophetic ministerial alignment/partnerships at the Mt Olivet Baptist Church of Columbus, Ohio. A descriptive research methodology was used, employing questionnaires, interviews and observations to assess the prevailing views of prophetic ministerial alignment/partnerships. A low response rate to the questionnaire created a need for additional data collection. Therefore a workshop was developed using existing data and presented for pastors and their staff. This yielded further insights into the particular contexts. A process to determine how to build prophetic ministerial alignment was developed.
