Inhaltsangabe

The cover of this book is a picture of the sun just above the horizon. It is a sunrise or a sunset? Who knows? It all depends on what you want to make it, how you chose to view it. Is retirement the sunset of your life or a new day, a new sunrise? What if this is not a time to quit, only a time to slow down and work smarter, get more accomplished with less effort? When you were young, you had more physical strength and less knowledge. What if this is the time to put your increased knowledge to work and decrease the physical effort? Even a car, once it has reached cruising speed, works at its greatest efficiency and ease. Now that you have gotten up to speed it is not time to let off of the gas or coast. Keep your foot on the peddle, right where it is and take advantage of living smarter. The hardest work is behind you. What if now is the time for you to affect more lives? Paul wrote most of his books from prison, seeing his "high calling" in the distance and entering it near the end of his life. Like a president of a corporation, or leader of a business, a "high calling" gets more accomplished with less effort. If most people today die in their 80's then life could be divided into quarters, 20,40,60,80. Who said life ends at three quarters? Each quarter should increase in blessing. Moses' high calling began at 80. Caleb and Joshua took mountains at 85. Maybe, like Paul, you know a lot about God. Now it is time to know God. What if all of these years have been a preparation for a new level of influence? What if the best is yet to come?

It is not easy to find material on pastoral retirement, especially for a pastor of an independent local church. Each church and its situations are so unique that it is difficult to find a uniform method of leaving a church and installing a successor.

since so little could be found on this subject, and the need for information on pastoral replacement has become so great in our generation, I decided to write this book. I also asked my son, Robb to join me and write the closing chapters. I think it is good to hear from the one who will be taking the helm of the church, as well as the one who is stepping down.

This is not intended to be a rulebook, but rather a practical guide to pastoral retirement and replacement. I trust that beyond the methods taught, the heart of the pastor toward his congregation will be seen in the pages of this book.
