*I cannot recommend this book more highly. Neither I nor The Minister's Friend receive a benefit from promoting this or other resources on our program. But I am convinced that, because of the day in which we now live and minister, churches need to be prepared like never before. This would also include legal protections. Please also see our special series from earlier in the year, Your Church and the Law for more information on how you can protect your church and ministry.
