How long has your (senior) pastor served your church? Or how long have you served if a pastor?
Longevity of ministry has often been a topic for discussion and research. Yet, I think, few studies have been done that focus exclusively on a bunch like SI, conservative evangelicals and fundamentalists.
If you serve as the lead/main/senior/only pastor at your church, answer the question about yourself. Otherwise, answer the question about the church you are now attending.
My suspicion is that we have a good level of longevity. We’ll find out!
