Churches offer three options to replace an inefficient pastor:

1. Hire a second preaching pastor

2. Rotate the preaching responsibilities by utilizing other non-preaching pastors and staff or volunteers to preach one of the weekly sermons

3. videotape the first sermon and playback the video to a subsequent church service that same morning.

The church has considered the priest salary in Option 1. And the church has determined that additional administrative expenses equivalent to 10 percent of non-preaching pastors' salaries and benefits would need to be incurred in Option 2. Video equipment and personnel costs in Option 3 have also been considered.

Question:

1. What additional types of information, including qualitative measures, would you need in order to assess the validity and appropriateness of each of the three options? And what additional questions need to be considered in order to make an assessment?
