Pastoral Helmsmanship (Paperback)

Pastoral Helmsmanship is a tool that every pastor needs. Pastors carry a huge administrative load and often are ill equipped to manage it. This book will assist any pastor in every size church with the insights needed to succeed. From budgeting, working with staff, boards and volunteers, leading meetings, and taking care of the family, Pastoral Helmsmanship covers it all in practical, understandable language. Seminary presidents, denomination and church leaders, and pastors are giving this tool rave reviews -you will too after you read it.

The Professor, the Pastor and the Practitioner came together to write this book with focused goals. Our unified heart was to create a practical reference guide for the pastor to bring awareness, hope and practical solutions to an ever increasingly complex world of church administration.
Only 1-2% of typical seminary training covers what normally consumes 40-60% of a pastor's time, which is administration. We have seen pastors come out of seminary ready to lead and preach, yet they are woefully undertrained to deal with the load of administration they will face.
With over a century of experience between them, the authors trust that the insights shared in this handbook/textbook will help and encourage you as you serve in the Kingdom of God. Galatians 6:9
