Got your attention? Good.
One of my favorite writers on church and ministry is Thom Rainer. His son Sam is a pretty astute guy, too.
Between now and Monday, you can get a copy of their book Essential Church? for free, as a downloadable PDF e-book.

This blog is all about Pastoral Transition. How does the pastoral placement process work? What is an effective placement? What is the candidating process like? These are my reflections on the processes of candidacy, placement, and transition.
