Book excerpt: Church members look to pastors to guide them in their faith and help them merge theology with real life. Of course, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Arguments among church members, conflicts between couples, and tension over unexpected matters are all common issues pastors face. Dealing with Conflict helps by offering suggestions and recommendations for: Understanding conflict styles, moderating disputes, recognizing red flags, and more. After surveying hundreds of pastors, asking them what they wish they’d learned in seminary but didn’t, "practical stuff" was the overwhelming answer. Practical Stuff for Pastors is a series of how-to guides dedicated to topics like how to manage a team, keep a building running, defuse conflicts, and more. Full of tips, recommendations, and strategies to equip pastors for running a church on the days between Sundays, these handbooks are valuable tools pastors will reference again and again.
