Question Time with Nigel Ring

The Church Office

In this podcast Gavin had the wonderful opportunity to interview Nigel Ring who has served Terry Virgo and Newfrontiers leadership team behind the scenes for over 40 years. I loved hearing his heart and encouragement for church administrators. A great opportunity to learn from the best!

A big thank you to our listeners for sending in their questions.

1. Do you have any tips on recruiting volunteers? This is a really challenging part of my job at the minute.

2. Do you have any suggestions of how we can better recognise volunteers contribution and thank them?

3. How do you sustain a long service in Christian Ministry?

4. How do you know when it is time to stop your involvement in a christian activity and how do you explain this to your friends who are still very much involved with and committed to that activity?

5. What kind of gifting do you need on a church planting team?

6. From your experience is there a link between good church management and a church successfully growing?

7. What advice do you have for churches who face financial challenges over the next few months and years? Any practical application?

8. When it comes to church finances and budgeting there can be a tension between faith and finances, how did you navigated that tension?

I loved every minute of this interview with Nigel, grateful for him and his faithful service to the wider church.
