How to leave a church

Season 2 Episode 89 Published 1 week ago
Description

Send me a Text Message or ask a question. — Jerrie

Most preachers spend years preparing for sermons, visits, and beginnings—but almost no time learning how to leave a church well. 

In this episode, I share what I learned the hard way through painful exits, family strain, an abrupt dismissal, and, eventually, thoughtful and healing departures. 

From quoting the Sermon on the Mount to avoid criticism, to sitting in living rooms saying “thank you,” “I love you,” and “goodbye,” this is a candid look at how endings shape congregations, families, and future ministry. 

Whether you’re a preacher, an elder, or a church member who knows change is inevitable, this episode’ll challenge you to think differently about how we say goodbye—and why it matters more than we realize.
