A Must Read
Congregations are families, but families sometimes have problems. Tragically (and I mean that word in its strongest sense), congregations sometimes split.
Recently, Paula Harrington wrote a great article on her blog about a congregational split close to where she lives in Kentucky. I know some of the “inside stuff” about this split, but not everything. I do know it was ugly and hurt a lot of people.
Some of the people it hurt were probably overlooked by bickering adults.

If your congregation is having trouble, please print this article and keep it close by. It might just help you reconsider breaking up a family.
