Faithful discipleship requires more than a good Sunday service. In this course series designed for pastors, ministry staff, and church volunteers, you will learn how to run your church faithfully and competently with the Church Administration specialization offered by Duke Divinity+.
The specialization consists of two foundational courses. First, in Church Administration Theology and Time Management, you will learn how to approach church administration theologically and how to better steward your time. Second, in Strategic Management for Churches, you will learn how to discern and establish church vision, core values and culture, goals and objectives, and metrics.
Finally, in the third and final course, Human Resource Stewardship for Churches, you will learn how to approach human resources management within a church and with a theological focus.
