Angel In My Pocket (Part 5)

Channels-Code Word: Committees

In this scene Rev. Whitehead tries to get things moving on the boiler and the old organ. Mayor Sinclair tells hims to submit it in writing and through the proper channels. Anyone around church life knows--that means committees.

It seems that in the past churches were committee laden with everything from the flower committee to the linen committee. In some cases these areas became Kingdoms where the rule and reign was passed on generationally.

I'm thankful today that churches have found that using areas of interest and giftedness to get the work of the church done without always having to rely on the structure of committees. It has made decision making easier and quicker. Besides, who wants to serve on the Laundry committee anyway?

Your thoughts?
