 Thanks for an alternative post Bro Jarvis. Is the book you mention a
 general book on Churches or a PAW publication?  >>

Me:

This is the text which we use for a course in "Church Administration", which
is offered by Aenon Bible College and may be taken as a Distance Learning
Course through our Bible Institute. The book, and/or the workbook may also be
purchased separately, without enrolling in the course.

The Authors of the book, "Church Administration" (ISBN 0-8054-3112-8) include:

William G. Caldwell, Professor of Church Administration, Southwestern Baptist
Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas

Robert D. Dale, Professor of Pastoral Leadership and Church Ministries,
Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, NC

J. Ralph Hardee, Associate Professor of Church Administration, The Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY

Bob I. Johnson, Associate Professor of Religious Education and Church
Administration, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Kansas City, MO

Bruce P. Powers, Professor of Christian Education , Southeastern Baptist
Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, NC

Mark Short, Associate Professor of Church Administration, New Orleans Baptist
Theological Seminary, New Orleans, LA

I found it to be extremely helpful in learning about the business, financial,
and legal matters that church officials must deal with. It also has some very
helpful info regarding weddings, funerals, etc. I found it quite a valuable
tool when we wrote the Constitution and By-laws for our church, (which was
necassary before incorporation, and receiving our tax-exempt status).
