As an interim minister, wouldn’t you love to get some thoughtful critique of your work from the settled pastor who followed you? You know – what the settled pastor most appreciates about your work; what turned out as you hoped it would? What turned out differently? And yet for interim ministers, it’s hard to get this kind of helpful feedback as part of your job is to leave the system and stay away. Sometimes, however, it is possible. In this episode, listen as interim minister, Rev. Peter Ilgenfritz, and the settled minister who followed him, Rev. Todd Weir, speak about one of the biggest headaches many settled ministers have – dealing with former ministers of the congregations who are still hanging around. Listen to how the IM managed the relationship with these former pastors in such a way that enhanced the ministry of the incoming settled pastor.
