Ep. 235: Unjustified Pastoral Termination
What are some of the reasons for unjustified terminations? What should a pastor do when presented with termination paperwork that includes a non-disclosure agreement (NDA)? What are his options when a movement to unjustly terminate him are presented? How should the congregation be involved in these things?
Brian and Jim discuss these and more on this episode of Trench Talk.
