Congregational life has changed in so many ways in recent years,
not least among them the transition from "cooperation" to
"competition" as the central model of how churches relate to one
another. Simply put, congregations that don t learn to compete in
this new "economy" will have few chances to thrive.
This change can be scary, because it forces us out of
established patterns of behavior and thinking. This is why trying
to lead a congregation in these changing times seems so often to
lead to conflict. Yet that conflict is not inevitable, says Lyle
Schaller. We can't stop the change that has led to higher levels of
competition, but we can manage that change in a variety of ways,
such as making certain that we accompany it with an increase in the
number of choices a congregation experiences, and by allowing
change to lead to healthy competition."
