Parish Survival Guide The

This book is about parish ministry and how to survive it. 'Survival' means to make it through the storm and outlast ones opponents! This is a practical handbook based on the premise that with preparation and careful foundation work, the problems facing the life of the ordinary clergy can be prevented. Looking at themes of crisis management, models of leadership, resource-management and then at the risks taken in carrying out the God-given calling and providing concrete examples of difficult situations, Dudley and Rounding also give wise and heartening advice on limiting the damage if things do slip out of control.
