The biggest draw to America’s megachurches is something easier to follow than any of Jesus’s teachings: the gospel of American capitalism

美國巨型教會最大的吸引力並非耶穌的任何教誨,而是更容易理解的東西:美國資本主義的福音。



Many obituaries did mention that for decades Mr. Drucker, who would have turned 96 today, devoted much of his energy to analyzing and advising nonprofit organizations and charities. A few obituaries even mentioned churches.
In fact, Mr. Drucker's prescience about the growing role of megachurches in American society could be placed alongside other insights those obituaries recorded: his anticipation of Japan's economic emergence, for example, or his attention to the rise of "knowledge workers" and the uses of "privatization."

許多訃聞都提到,德魯克/杜拉克先生(如果他還在世,今天就96歲了)幾十年來一直致力於分析和指導非營利組織和慈善機構。一些訃聞甚至提到了教會。

事實上,德魯克先生對巨型教會在美國社會中日益增長的作用的預見性,可以與這些訃告中記錄的其他洞見並列:例如,他對日本經濟崛起的預見,以及他對「知識工作者」的崛起和「私有化」運用的關注。
 






Tea With Drucker - ChurchPlanting.com
Peter Drucker, management guru and Christian thinker, saw megachurches as a significant societal shift and a complex leadership challenge, calling them perhaps the most important social phenomenon in America, but stressed that their immense scale demanded disciplined management, ethical character (integrity, humility, generosity), and a focus on true purpose beyond mere marketing, warning against corporate pitfalls like power lust and shallow goals, advocating for principles like federalism and servant leadership to build functional, meaningful communities. 
Key Drucker Insights on Megachurches:
  • A Major Social Phenomenon: He recognized megachurches as crucial developments in modern society, reflecting changes in community and belief.
  • Extreme Leadership Challenge: Drucker considered megachurch pastorates among the hardest jobs, requiring leaders to wear many hats and meet diverse expectations, similar to hospital or university leaders.
  • Purpose Over Popularity: He emphasized that true leadership, especially in churches, must stem from a clear, divine purpose, not just business growth or marketing tactics, a concept he discussed extensively with leaders like Rick Warren.
  • Beware of Corporate Traps: While applying management principles, Drucker warned against adopting business methods wholesale, cautioning against the "lust for power," ethical compromises, and organizational structures that prioritize size over spiritual depth.
  • Character & Responsibility: He believed effective church leadership required integrity, humility, generosity, and a focus on responsibility, viewing power as service, not privilege.
  • Structure & Division of Labor: Drucker understood the necessity of sophisticated organization (like Jethro-gation mentioned in Big Think), but this structure must serve the core mission, not become the mission itself. 
Drucker's Influence:
  • He advised prominent megachurch leaders like Rick Warren (Saddleback Church) and Bill Hybels (Willow Creek), helping them apply principles of purpose and management to build large, effective congregations. 
In essence, Drucker saw megachurches as vital, challenging, and potentially transformative institutions, but only if guided by deep ethical purpose, strong character, and sound management principles that serve the church's fundamental mission, not just its scale.

與德魯克共飲下午茶 - ChurchPlanting.com


管理學大師和基督教思想家彼得‧杜拉克認為,巨型教會的出現標誌著社會的重大變革,同時也帶來了複雜的領導挑戰。他稱巨型教會或許是美國最重要的社會現象,但他強調,其龐大的規模需要嚴謹的管理、高尚的道德品格(正直、謙遜、慷慨),以及超越單純營銷的真正目標。他警告人們要警惕權力慾和膚淺目標等企業陷阱,並倡導聯邦制和服務型領導等原則,以建構功能完善、意義深遠的社群。


德魯克關於巨型教會的關鍵見解:


重大的社會現象:他認為巨型教會是現代社會發展的關鍵事件,反映了社群和信仰的變遷。


極高的領導力挑戰:德魯克認為,巨型教會的牧師工作是難度最高的工作之一,要求領導者身兼數職,滿足各方不同的期望,這與醫院或大學的領導者類似。


目標高於人氣:他強調,真正的領導力,尤其是在教會中,必須源自於清晰的神聖目標,而非僅僅追求商業成長或行銷策略。他曾與里克·沃倫等領袖深入探討這個理念。


警惕企業陷阱:在運用管理原則的同時,德魯克警告人們不要全盤照搬商業模式,告誡人們要警惕「權力欲」、道德妥協以及那些重規模輕靈性的組織結構。


品格與責任:他認為,有效的教會領導力需要正直、謙遜、慷慨和責任感,並將權力視為服務而非特權。


結構與分工:德魯克理解精密組織(如《大思考》中提到的「葉特羅式組織」)的必要性,但這種組織結構必須服務於核心使命,而不是成為使命本身。


德魯克的影響:


他曾為里克·沃倫(馬鞍峰教會)和比爾·海貝爾斯(柳溪教會)等著名的巨型教會領袖提供諮詢,幫助他們運用目標和管理原則來建立規模龐大且高效的教會。


從本質上講,德魯克認為巨型教會是至關重要的、具有挑戰性的、並且有可能具有變革意義的機構,但前提是必須以深刻的道德目標、堅強的品格和健全的管理原則為指導,以服務於教會的根本使命,而不僅僅是其規模。
