Pastors Forum for Hawaii Pacific Baptist Pastors

Mark emphasized that shepherding is a pastor’s primary calling, outlining essentials and strategies for care, and stressing the balance between church-wide and personal shepherding.

During the Q&A session following Trevin Wax's presentation, pastors engaged in thoughtful discussion about practical applications of trustworthy leadership, addressing specific challenges in their congregations while exploring how to balance authority with humility in today's low-trust environment.

In response to declining institutional trust and a crisis of pastoral authority, Trevin Wax urges pastors to cultivate Christlike strength by balancing authority with tenderness, developing long-term ministry vision, embracing constructive conflict, and fostering deep relationships within their congregations.

Mark Hallock addresses specific questions from Hawaii Pacific Baptist pastors about implementing revitalization principles in their unique ministry contexts.

Mark outlines four proven pathways for breathing new life into struggling congregations. He also identifies five critical markers that indicate a church is prepared for successful revitalization or replanting.
