Accountable Leadership: A Resource Guide for Sustaining Legal, Financial, and Ethical Integrity in Today's Congregations
"This book filled an important gap in congregational studies when it was first published, and four years later this much enlarged edition is even better. In a world where church finances, law, and ethics are so much more complicated than ever, leaders can't afford to be without it." --Loren Meade, founder, The Alban Institute"This book is a plea for congregational leaders to be competent, informed, accountable, and in touch with contemporary reality. Reading it will enrich both the life and the ministry of every leader who accepts the need to be accountable. It is an ideal study book to be read by every member of the governing board." --Lyle E. Schaller, Church Consultant"Chaffee is thorough, reasonable, and pastoral in his approach to an important subject rarely covered adequately in a seminary." --Your Church
