Polluted WELS on the Problem of Business Principles in Church

WELS leaders found the right place for their notions,
but guys - the Southern Baptists rejected the NIV,
hoof, horn, and pitchfork.

A Travesty Examined, Part Seven

Well, at least they aren't trying to hide their shame with this one: Applying Business Principles to Church Work.

Here's the description (in red) and my comments (in black).
Do business and church work go together? 

Do the kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world go together? Do darkness and light go together?

In this session, seven key business principles will be presented that are cornerstones to building a successful business. They can also apply to ministry work. 

Can they? Really? Business and the Church are essentially and fundamentally different. They have different purposes, aims, and goals. A successful business is one that gets the right numbers regardless of the means. A successful church is one that uses the right means regardless of the numbers.

Come learn how to build a successful business and how to apply those key principles in ministry to help spread the good news of Jesus.

If you want to know about how to build a successful business, there are much better places to go and learn. If you want to know about how to build a successful church, there are much better places to go and learn.


WELS Means of Greed:
First - Management by Objective.
Second - SMART Goals.
Third - Mission Vision Statements.
Fourth - Gobs of Money.
