4.0 out of 5 stars Good collection of basic information, May 17, 1999
By Steven Nicholson (New Orleans, LA) - See all my reviews
This handbook, writen by several authors, is a solid collection of some basic administrative information. Although several chapters are not as well developed as they could be, there is enough here to get you started. To balance this shortcoming, there are extensive lists of additional readings that can provide more detail. There are chapters on finances, special events, staff, leadership, organization, and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful handbook for Church Administration., February 19, 2002
This book was wonderfully constructed. It is a must have for all pastors, chairmen of deacons, trustees and administrative assistants. If you have a question about how a proceedure should be done, more than likey this book has covered it. It will certainly be a compliment to your personal library.

Bless Your Spirit

4.0 out of 5 stars Useful Church Administrator Resource, September 8, 2006
By Travis E. Wright (Wake Forest, NC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Powers has written a useful (but bland) text outlining many of the tasks that are essential to effective church ministry. This is a highly recomended book for those looking to become administrators of churches or non-profit ministries.
