Gary McIntosh and Charles Arn are friends of mine, and I am thrilled that they have prepared this book. Both of these writers have an excellent history of research as well as a heart commitment to the church and the ministry of Jesus Christ. When they write What Every Pastor Should Know, they mean it, and every pastor should read this book to find out what they must know.

What Every Pastor Should Know is an invaluable reference book. Its value lies in being well researched, comprehensive, specific, and practical. It is also 'user friendly' in listing so many guidelines and rules to help church leaders keep on course and not become sidetracked.
-Eddie Gibbs,
Professor Emeritus, Fuller Seminary

Drawing on their combined church leadership wisdom, my friends Gary McIntosh and Charles Arn have created an incredible reference guide that reflects their passion for helping local churches fulfill the Great Commission. What Every Pastor Should Know is aptly named; the practical information in these pages is essential knowledge for those of us who want to lead growing, effective churches.
