I have been a full time senior pastor of a small church for a little over three years now, and even in this size of ministry, a heavy percentage of my office hours are devoted to administration. 9 times out of 10, early delegation and training takes longer than just doing it yourself, but gradually, people become trained and equipped, and your effectiveness can multiply. Mark, as a side note, thanks for linking to my blog in your blogroll. My site has moved from "The Desert Chronicle" to "Life Under the Sun" (my new blog address is http://stephen-jones.blogspot.com). God bless. Mark, thanks for pointing out this distinction.
