Reviewing Spending, Leading Through Tragedy, and Obituaries // In the News
Description
How do we lead our churches well in the use of money? What happens when a tragedy affects the church? What do recent deaths teach us about the changing world?
In this episode of In:Dependence, Adrian Reynolds (FIEC Head of National Ministries) and John Stevens (FIEC National Director) discuss stories in the news and what we can learn from them about church leadership.
