CGGC CEO Search/Winebrenner Thought Experiment. Fourth Thought Experient.

1.  The current CGGC leadership culture, which is--in its behavior-- theologically moderate, practices institutional churchism and which values mellow relationships over the radical love for God and one another modeled and commanded by Jesus, is controlling the search for the next CGGC CEO.

2.  In recent years, that very same leadership culture has called our church to recapture the spirit of its founder, John Winebrenner, is his most radical years, from 1829 to 1844, by imposing on our body the authority of Winebrenner's pursuit of the "New Testament plan" and the adoption of his extreme devotion to the Bible as our "only" "rule."

3.  It has assembled a search committee to find, for the CGGC, its next Executive Director who will, by definition, function from a corporate business model as a CEO, not from the New Testament model of Spirit-empowered, APEST giftedness.

Two questions:

• Will the CGGC College of Cardinals, AKA the search committee, elevate someone in the radical early Winebrenner mode in submission to We Believe 2013, the 2013 Statement of Faith and the 2009 Mission Statement who would have sided with Winebrenner in the 1820s, 1830's and 1840s or will they elevate an institutionalist happy to function as a CEO in the image of Ed Rosenberry?
• Should they elevate a Winebrenner type or a Rosenberry figure?
