Each ministry subject – stewardship, pastoral care, preaching,
or Christian education – is taught several times over a period of
four seminars. At every seminar, the pastor reports on his action plan
for ministry and formulates a new one. Such repeated seminars provide
growth in knowledge and growth in skills. Concrete, identifiable changes
in the life of the congregation become powerful motivators for continued
participation. Two mottos emerge: “Plan your work and work your plan”
and “No pain, no gain.”
