Change takes years. Really thorough change involves the whole church culture evolving. Bear this in mind when you pass on constructive criticism to your pastor. Bear this in mind if you *are* a pastor and feel like you are achieving nothing.
A Crossroads example:
- 2005 - We didn't have any music at church;
- 2006 - We started having music at church and it was hectic, inconsistent and stressful;
- 2007 - We bought songbooks, organised a team of bandleaders and began troubleshooting;
- 2008 - The music is consistently pretty good.
