At Bethel College, in Mishawaka, Ind., using a search firm is the exception for hiring senior leaders. Instead, those involved in the search rely on their faith for assistance in choosing the right person, said Gregg Chenoweth, president of the small institution affiliated with the Missionary Church, an evangelical Christian denomination.
“We begin with the assumption that we can use our ordinary professional processes and prayer,” said Mr. Chenoweth. “If that doesn’t work, we might use a firm,” he said. “For us, we are praying to a living God, who responds to our prayer.”
