This episode answers a question sent in by a listener: "What are some resources you would recommend for those on church staff?" In response, I give a list of books, websites, software, and other items that I consistently use. These are resources that will not only be effective for church staff but for church members as well! This is the second part of our Q&A. Please go back to Episode 109: "Should a lady wear a head covering?" to hear the first part of our Q&A.
