PRAYER
PURPOSE
to debrief pastor/people relationship
to understand what happened in the relationship
to discover how to put closure on the pastor/people relationship
This is not a time to reverse decision, to debate or argue issues, to lay blame or create guilt, it is a time to be as frank and honest with each other as possible. It is a time to help in healing the wounds which have occurred in a broken relationship.
