Topic: Scenario 2 – Repairing and Strengthening Strained Relationships The pastor and worship pastor of Riverfront Church have a significant relational problem. While the worship pastor is talented, the pastor feels he is a diva and too performance-driven. The pastor is viewed by the worship pastor as a struggling communicator and average leader. Even so, the church is unaware of any tension and is strongly supportive of both staff members. Based on your reading and lectures from the course, what are specific actions/strategies that can be implemented to assist the pastor and worship pastor in repairing and strengthening their relationship?
