Description
Many congregational leaders may not name administrative governance as high on their list of things they most enjoy about their role, but many recognize that church governance is a necessary part of running a church. The author of "Church Governance: What Leaders Must Know to Conduct Legally Sound Church Business" offers this book as a way to educate congregational and ministry leaders about this necessary and critically important responsibility.
This reference book covers the nuts and bolts of church governance, including incorporation, bylaws, elections, board structure, membership requirements, minutes, and business meetings... and a host of other topics. By understanding these things, congregational leaders will be better able to understand risks, be able to recognize issues when they arise, and know how/when to seek guidance.
