Part 126. The new General. What now?

The election of Lyndon Buckingham as the next General of The Salvation Army is to be welcomed.  Only time will tell if the hope so many have for reform will become reality under his leadership. Keeping the Army united worldwide is a major challenge and it may be that granting increased autonomy to territories is the answer.

The next General takes up his post in August 2023. A key early decision for him is to decide who is to replace him as Chief of Staff, a post of great importance as the holder is number two in the Army.
