What Every Pastor Should Know: 101 Indispensable Rules of Thumb for Leading Your Church
By Gary L. McIntosh and Charles Arn (Baker Books)
A 2014 OUTREACH RESOURCE OF THE YEAR

Keep this book on your desk and refer to it before taking any ministry step. It’s that good! —Bill Easum, from the March/April 2014 issue of Outreach magazine
