Think Tank Offers Profile of Leaders of New Church Starts
(ORLANDO, Fla., August 2, 2008/GBOD)--When
searching for pastors to start new
congregations, conventional wisdom is, perhaps,
best kicked to the curb.

perceived as troublemakers, egotistical,
nonconformist, and don't like to spend time in
their offices. People with these characteristics
could be [church] planters.
