    Discerning When To Hire A New Staff Member
    Feb 25 2021
    Hiring a new staff member can be an exciting time, but it can also be a time of anxiety. Many churches make these decisions pragmatically rather than through discernment. Join Jeremy and Dave in this episode as they talk through the necessity to examine motives, beliefs, and assumptions before hiring, and about some practices that will help a church discern the way forward. Contact Jeremy through his website, http://JeremyHoover.com (JeremyHoover.com), or at http://jeremyhoovercoaching.com (JeremyHooverCoaching.com). Contact Dave through his website, http://contemplativepragmatist.com (ContemplativePragmatist.com).
