The Assemblies of God’s corporate roadmap for transformation
I just resurrected this from my email archives from April of this year. But I thought some of you might find still find this interesting to read.
As some of you may know, I worked at HQ from 1991 to 1999 and during that entire time the HQ leadership had been working at "re-engineering" corporate structure (I think they were calling it "re-entrenchment" or some such euphemism, to avoid panicking the huddled masses), and re-evaluating our overall church culture. I know that at every General Council a report is presented evaluating the overall spiritual climate of the Fellowship, but I think there's been a particular pointedness to the internal naval-gazing ever since Margaret Poloma came to HQ to research her book, The Assemblies of God at the Crossroads: Charisma and Institutional Dilemmas.
I understand a lot of hand-wringing occurred after that
