Multi-dimensional approach to crisis management in the church

Abstract

The church, like every other society encounters internal crises. Theological Seminaries and Universities are well positioned to help the church in its search for methods of coping with the problem. Importantly, because the studies of religion and other disciplines in many Universities are academic, supposedly objective, and comparative, products of the research findings from Universities with interest in religion and social sciences can contribute to the search for multidimensional management of church crises. Eclectic theory of civil conflict resolution of Keih as modified for religious conflict management by Israel Akanji was applied to the data collected for this work.

Keywords: Conflict; crisis; Christian leadership; vision; interactive problem- solving approach; and metacommunication
