The Ministry Essentials Bible is designed to equip church and parachurch leaders, missionaries, laypeople, and ministry leaders of all kinds with the practical tools they need to manage everyday ministry issues. It provides busy leaders with succinct, wise, and applicable viewpoints on the most common facets of Christian leadership.

• The Leader's Spiritual Life
• Shepherding Others
• Evangelism and Social Justice
