Chain of Command in the Church

The church has a short chain of command:

First there's Jesus Christ as the unquestioned Head. Then there's everybody else.

You need to work on your organizational chart, Eric. Simple never works.

Brother! We're on the same page!

Alan,

Sorry. I just can't stop thinking it will.

Eric said...

John,

Sweet!

Eric,

Your post reminded me of a class that I had to take in seminary: Pastoral Ministry. For one of the assignments, I had to create a church organization chart. My chart looked alot like your post... exactly like it, in fact. :)

Alan,

How did that go over with the professor?

I remember once, prior to moving to
Wake Forest, being part of a church split where the "chain of command" was a big issue. How sad it all is.

I don't remember what comments (if any) I got on the org chart. We had to turn in a huge binder of info at the end of the class. I'm not even sure if I got it back or not.
