Tim King feels that it is not being presumptuous to believe that if a church leader  implements just half of the ideas expressed in this book their churches will grow.
Those who have read the book agree that much of the inspirational content will help a church leader succeed:
 “In this book, Tim’s heart and passion come through to see great churches and great leaders be all they can be!”
—Pastor John Greenow, Excel Church, Newton Aycliffe, United Kingdom.
" Readers will see that Pastor Tim is a man who wants you to succeed; succeed in who you are in Christ and succeed in the mission that God has called you to do."
                              - Pastor Ed Carter, Valley Church, Preston United Kingdom.
 



Tim King was born in the United Kingdom but brought up in Zimbabwe, Africa. He became a Christian in 1975. Tim was ordained into ministry in 1980. As well as being actively involved in Christian ministry in Zimbabwe, he climbed mountains, mentored young people, ran a successful business and gained over twenty years’ experience at a senior management level. In November 2000 he moved to New Zealand to be involved in running bible schools, lecturing, itinerant ministry and running leadership seminars. Tim has a passion to see churches overflowing, pastors reinvigorated with vision, and for communities to be impacted for the cause of Christ. Tim runs the Tim King Leadership Institute that is designed to revitalise passion, increase skills, build relationships and unleash phenomenal potential that will help build and develop churches, communities and the Kingdom of God. Tim is married to Penny and between them they have six daughters. He is presently researching for his PhD.

The 1970's Christian Coffee Shop

I remember as a new Christian being invited into a Christian Coffee shop in the town where I grew up. It was clean and tidy, the table tops were all brightly painted in different colours,  but mainly yellow and scattered on top were a random selection of Christian tracts. Fish symbols and Christian posters proclaiming that there was but 'One Way' to heaven were everywhere. The music playing out of the stereo was The Bill Gather Trio or Dolly Parton singing Gospel. The crockery, was a mixed assortment of coffee mugs, donated by keen supporters of this outreach to the unsaved sinners and ungodly people living in the city. The coffee was a local brand heavily mixed with chicory. In all the years the Coffee Shop operated, I never saw a non-Christian go in and I never heard of a person coming to faith through having coffee there. I never really understood its purpose. Fast forward to today, when I was asked recently, to advise on helping a local community church open a c...

The myth of Ministry Leadership.

The myth that all leaders are leaders. Not everyone who leads in church is a leader. I think it is wrong, for Church leaders to believe that those they train up to take various ministry leadership positions, are in fact leaders in their own right. They are not. At best I would categorise these people- that many churches call 'ministry leaders' as ministry managers.                 "At one level there is nothing wrong with title inflation; it is a cheap way of recognising people who work hard and make serious contributions" Jo Owen. I am of the opinion that this title inflation undervalues both the leader and the ' ministry manager' and can often bring about confusion and mismatched expectations. Many churches have ministry training evenings for their volunteers. Many use the reason for this training is "to make a person a better leader," when in fact the only thing actually happening is that th...

Christian leaders and how to fire a Christian employee.

This weeks ramblings. I was asked this week if it was OK for Christian employers to fire other Christian staff.  Firstly let me state that it is always important to follow the laws of the country that you live in, but the question should be; Do I as an employer have the right to fire other staff Christian or not. The short answer is YES! Let me give you two examples I have come across; Case Study 1; The CEO of medium sized Christian organisation dealing in books and other Christian Literature had a problem with one of their staff. The person concerned, let’s call him Pete, seemed to push everybody’s buttons. Pete had been with the company 2 years, his first six months were just great but after that everything went downhill. He always complained, he bad mouthed his managers. At company social gatherings, when sport was played, he never played with any great sportsmanship; it seemed that every decision was wrong or somebody had a beef with him. But, Pete went to the same c...
