Succession readiness is a hard topic for any Christian organization to discuss. Sometimes leaders can feel alone as they try to find support in exploring the next season of their organization. But now, more than ever, as pastors are burned out and ready to transition earlier than expected, succession conversations are more important than ever.

If you've found yourself in this situation or simply want to prepare for when succession does come, be sure to check out our CEO & founder, William Vanderbloemen's new book on pastoral succession here. The updated and expanded edition of Next: Pastoral Succession That Works will equip pastors, ministry teams, and Christian organizations to navigate leadership changes with wisdom and grace.
