Leading in the church is more than a job, more than a career, more than a profession --- it's a vocation, a calling. At least, it's supposed to be, Yet we find ourselves at a time when many church leaders act like CEOs and integrate business models into their church leadership. What should church leadership be?

"Leading in the Church" is an eclectic exploration of what being a leader in the church could and should be. Using a collection of writings on the topics of church leadership, ministry, preaching, and teaching, this book will likely challenge some of your current ideas about church leadership and inspire you to examine what leading in the church should really be.

This book series isn't necessarily about financial endeavors, the love of money and power or pushing teens into any particular business-centric direction. Your children study history and mathematics without the motivating factor of being a professional historian or mathematician. This book of business and cybersecurity should be studied in the same manner. Education is about opening the student's mind to a universe of new possibilities and tearing down barriers. This book series stands as a testament that any and all information should be readily available to anyone regardless of age or geography when the student is ready to receive it, without systematic restriction by establishment topical guardians. Standardized education has succeeded at nothing other than the dumbing down of our youth and inventing new inhibitors to information access. The brutal reality nowadays is that the education sector attracts teachers who teach because (in most cases) they cannot do, and these are the very people we allow 12+ years of access to our children. Ask your teen's 11th grade political science teacher what books he/she's published or what office within the legislative community they've held? I can virtually guarantee that they've published nothing and held no office that demanded real life usage of the content that they regurgitate onto a chalkboard in your child's classroom. Let's face the facts; we've been bamboozled into believing that the school system knows best in matters of shaping and molding the developing minds of our children. We've been instructed by the institutional machine that our youth's mind and very being are nothing more than possessions of the state. This book series shatters the illusions and lies that school teachers, experts in nothing but recitation of words authored by someone else, are properly equipped to instruct your teen. Take control of the education of your child. Give them the tools they'll need to succeed by instilling true and usable knowledge that will stand out amid the pretentious rhetoric they encounter daily. The illusion of 'righteous access' that sides with those the establishment deems as your child's 'betters' does nothing constructive and only inhibits their rightful access to information. Your teen deserves full access to any and all information that will cultivate the necessary intellectual attributes to future success. Kids can still be kids while simultaneously learning skills and strategies that can be accessed whenever the interest strikes them. Your child may not understand at this time but their hearts are screaming out for you to guide them and take their corner as they prepare for life. This book series is meant to offer you and your child the information that rightfully belongs to you; unbridled and uncut. With an ever expanding global economy, deflation that defies historical precedence and an education system built out of corruption and illusion, this writer humbly offers you something pure and honest; information that contributes to the preparation of an adult without the educational limitations forced upon them by the establishment. Cybersecurity best practices should be second nature for your child as, nowadays, via social media and video games, nearly 50%+ of your teen's life is consumed by online interaction and what steps are being taken to protect them in this space? This book series doesn't have all the answers but this author has concentrated a profound amount of 'rea life' knowledge in this book series based off of the identified shortcomings in his children's public school education. This book series is the result of over three years of research and analyzing curriculum for missing pieces and necessary critical updates to a flawed system. Topics that have been historically categorized for advanced students have been consolidated and presented in an easy to read, fun and informative text for distribution to those seeking a better education f

This manual is designed as a resource for people involved in all facets of mergers or acquisitions. The steps involved in such transactions are thoroughly explained. It is our goal that, after having gone through this manual, you'll know how to handle each step in the merger and acquisition process. Mergers and acquisitions (M&As) have played a major role in expansion and consolidation of business organizations across the globe. Recently, M&As have become important in influencing market forces. This is one reason for dramatic increase in the number of mergers over the last decade. M&A transactions are worth a considerable amount in terms of dollars as well as in terms of number of transactions. In 1998, there were more than $1 trillion in mergers and acquisitions in the United States alone, more than 7,500 transactions. After reading this manual, all stakeholders should have adequate information on how to handle the merger or acquisition transaction. Mergers and acquisitions are not the same thing, and it is important to understand the difference. One difference is speed. If investors need the transaction to be completed in a short amount of time, then acquisition will likely be the most appropriate. That is assuming that the assets of the acquired company are a strategic fit to the new owner's existing company. Some business investors think that internal development is a good strategy. One reason why investors prefer mergers or acquisitions to creating a company from scratch is that these are faster ways of entering the market or expanding into new markets. In some cases, a market opportunity may have passed if a company waits to ramp up its own internal operation to meet the demand. All regulatory requirements of a merger or acquisition are listed in this manual. When a merger involves millions of dollars, companies must adhere to federal antitrust statutes, state laws and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations. There are additional requirements for non-public transactions.

Effective counseling is more than just talking and listening, it also includes equipping and teaching/learning. This workbook contains many of the notes used by the international ministry of Scott Free Clinic with clients in the equipping and teaching process. While specifically a tool for the clients, the workbook can be helpful for others wanting to develop their self - and other - awareness. The workbook is NOT a replacement for clinical therapy, but a tool to use while working with a competent counselor, or for using on your own for personal development.

This book deals with the process of taking a company public, from forming the initial public offering to beginning operations. Entrepreneurs who are pressed for time often find this process difficult due to its many steps. Most books on this subject fail to offer first-hand, practical advice on taking a company public, whereas this book is intended to provide definitive guidance. Taking a company public is every entrepreneur's dream, and it alsooffers major financial rewards, prestige and glamour. It is also acomplex process that often intimidates entrepreneurs, and requires specialists in many disciplines such as accountants, attorneys, consultants and public relations executives. These professionals may possess a thorough knowledge of their area of expertise, but they rarely have a total grasp of the entire process of taking a company public. This book fulfills the need of the Chief Executive Officer and the IPO team to obtaina more complete understanding of this complex subject.
