Many of us are experts at what local churches “ought to do” in order to be effective, but few of us are capable of explaining “how to do” what needs to be done…Great Commission Resources has produced a series of materials that show dedicated Christians exactly how to do some of the jobs that they already know they ought to do.

I recommend these materials for church leaders who want their congregations to be more productive.
