Meyer disestablishes unjust process: restores honor to providing correction

MAITLAND, FL— Jim Meyer’s new book, Church
Coup ($16.99, paperback, 978-1-62419-932-5; $26.99, hardcover, 978-1-62419-933-2;
$8.99, e-book, 978-1-62419-934-9) exposes what many churches have wrongly done in order to remove a pastor
from office. His mission is to encourage Christian leaders to devise templates
for correcting pastors that are biblical, fair and loving rather than ones that
are destructive and deceptive.
“The book is an insider's account of a church conflict from the view of the senior pastor,” states the author. “The book raises many issues about church power struggles and the devastating consequences of forced termination for pastors, their families, and local congregations. This account sheds light on the template used by those who want to remove a pastor and calls for Christian leaders to break their silence on this issue so we can stop 1,500 pastors from leaving church ministry every month.”
A pastor for more than thirty-five years, Jim Meyer is the founder of Restoring Kingdom Builders, a 501(c)(3) organization designed to prevent and resolve church conflict, biblically. A graduate of Biola University (B.A.), Talbot School of Theology (M.Div.) and Fuller Seminary (D.Min.), Jim and his wife Kim, live in Southern California.
