LESSONS FROM THE PULPIT

What volunteerism can learn from the modern day church movement

I have just read your article on "Lessons from the the Pulpit" Great article and much food for thought. Who would have thought that we would pull parallels from the Church with regard to volunteering. When as you state in the beginning of your article the concerns of volunteer involvement in churches. It is a great article and yes I think there are lessons to be learnt from the "New" Churches approach. We certainly need to look at how we can best involve volunteers in organisations as I believe we are on the cusp of a new evolution in volunteering - the traditional ways are not as effective as they once were, and there are many reasons and influences for this.
