A clear, practical guide for the pastor, parish administrator, pastoral staff members, and pastoral council. In down-to-earth language and using real-life examples, this book covers the most important questions in parishes today, including a local theology of church management, parish human resources and personnel issues, legal issues, parish leadership, parish stewardship, pastoral councils, and parish management.

The church is not a business, and yet every pastor and parish staff faces increasingly complex questions about income, expenditures, employer/employee relationships, law, and a host of related management issues. The better a parish manages these questions, the better its ability to carry out the parish's primary mission of leading people to Christ and being a sign of the kingdom. The nine contributors to The Parish Management Handbook are among the best and most experienced leaders in parish management today. Together they offer indispensable guidance and help for all who work in parishes.
