LifeandLeadership.com Summary
Most church leaders recognize the importance of good administration, but are either untrained or uninterested in giving attention to the necessary details. Books like this make the details easier, quicker, and more efficient, allowing adequate attention without competing with larger priorities. Gilbert and Spear provide several templates for role descriptions of virtually all functions in the church, both paid and volunteer, along with a CD that allows readers to tailor the information to their own needs. Very useful.
From the Publisher
When CGI received calls from several churches asking for job descriptions, they began researching the topic and found that the majority of churches no matter the size did not have written job descriptions, yet they wanted them. This manual is the tool any church or organization can use to develop comprehensive job descriptions. It is reproducible to use the descriptions as is, plus it includes a CD Rom to help churches customize to their needs. Includes descriptions for every positions from executive pastor to cookie baker, from administrative assistant to puppeteer, from usher to pantry organizer. Besides the job descriptions you may discover a ministry you might never have thought of and expand your church’s ministry in the process!
