Answer: With honour and love, communicate the importance of maintaining standards. Rather than focusing on discipline as the first solution, consider that the root issue may be a lack of clarity about the standard itself. This is where vision casting becomes crucial. Note: Discipline is not the answer; building understanding and commitment to the standard often resolves performance issues more effectively.

Answer: With love, extensively teach them the importance of coming early, let them see the need why everything is being done. Strategies such as rewarding leaders who come early can be implemented, it will prompt the leaders to start coming early because everyone wants to be rewarded. Also, disciplinary actions e.g. punishments, fines, etc can be implemented. If they pay fines for a Sunday they came late, they won’t want to be late for the next service…. If they do, collect again. (But Note, don’t scold/punish a CEC leader in front of GEC leaders) Besides, it increases the purse, lol. When they see all these systems working in place, they’d adjust to them.

Answer: (Slightly same as question 1…) Approach him with honor and love, then allow see the need in which that thing should be done in that manner. If he/she doesn’t receive it, talk with the vice president. Same thing? Relate it to the sector, stating why it should be done in that manner, so the sector director will talk to the president.

Answer: Firstly, it’s important to understand that communication goes beyond just talking. It involves body language, thought processes, the message itself, the way the message is delivered, how it is received, and the feedback given. Communication is a delicate process, and as individuals in different levels of leadership, we must first understand its dynamics. Communication is not complete until the recipient understands the message exactly as the sender intends. One major barrier to effective communication in church leadership is a flawed understanding of leadership itself. As a leader—regardless of your level of leadership—you are first a child of God before you are a leader. Your fellow leaders and team members are your siblings in Christ. It is essential to see yourself as God sees you and to view others through that same lens. You are God’s beloved child, and He is your Father. While He is Lord and King, He does not rule over you with force. If you embrace this perspective, you won’t see yourself as “a boss” in leadership. Instead, you will see yourself as someone serving and working alongside your fellow siblings in Christ. This mindset will help you communicate with love and respect, and in turn, it will encourage others to receive and respond in the same spirit of love. In summary, teach the people at different levels of leadership to primarily see themselves how God sees them, as this would affect how communication happens amongst themselves.

Answer: If the leaders aren’t engaged in church activities, the members will most likely not be engaged. Start with increasing leaders’ engagement, then it’d rub off on the members.

Answer: First of all, pray for wisdom. Then, ensure you hear from both parties (separately), knowing where the common problem is. Once you’ve identified the common problem, without favouritism, talk to both parties separately. Then you can call for a meeting, and start addressing it.

Answer: Systems have to be in place. Good thing CFi has a constitution, always goes back to her constitution. It’s good to note that changes don’t happen overnight. Allow your leaders to know that you have them in your heart, let them know they’re loved by you, touch their hearts before you can ask for their hands. Sell the general provision of CFi (vision, mission, spirit, objectives, goals, etc) to your leaders and also teach them their job description, letting them know that they’re the best people for the job. When they come to this actualization, the administration efficiency will improve.

Answer: Favoritism and perceived bias often begin when a leader grows fond of a person or group because of their responsiveness. These individuals are always available, contribute more to the work, or offer invaluable support to the leader. If we’re being honest, it’s natural to show such people more love, favor, and respect. But if we all received only what we deserved, there would be no need for grace—would there? As leaders, we must first recognize that we have received the very nature of God—the ability to love as He loves. And God’s love is without bias. We are all His favorite children; no one is more favored than the other. What does this mean for us? It means extending grace to everyone, regardless of their level of activeness or responsiveness—especially to those who are less engaged in church, your unit, or your team. When God wanted to show us grace, He came after us. In the same way, you should go after those under your care. Show them the grace of God. It is grace that saves. It is grace that draws people closer. When we lead this way, everyone will feel loved and safe in church.

Answer: First students, before CFites. No man is an island of himself, being able to delegate certain responsibilities to people. In cases of exam period, it can be discussed with the CEC house to stop weekly activities, so that everyone can prepare properly.

Answer: CFi is both a ministry and an organization. As a ministry, the President serves as the ‘head pastor,’ followed by the Vice President and other associate pastors. As an organization, the President holds the highest position, with the Secretary General and the Vice President operating on the same administrative level. On this organizational side, the Secretary General plays a crucial administrative role, regardless of whether they are a pastor or not. However, If the Secretary General is also a pastor, they function in both the ministerial and organizational arms. If the Secretary General is not a pastor or not, they should excel in communication and relationship-building, especially with the associate pastors. The Secretary General should establish strong relationships with the pastors and ensure that all leaders (Pastors and CECs) clearly understand their roles and responsibilities.
