Church & Ministry Administration (BC-310)
Learn to combine spiritual depth with skillful organization to maximize your ministry's reach, impact, and effectiveness.
About This Course
If we combine depth in the Word and the Spirit with skillful organization and administration, our churches and ministries will become an explosive force for God. Without proper administration, a ministry will struggle or even halt. Throughout Scripture, the spiritual work of God was undergirded by practical planning and coordination.
This course covers practical aspects of organizing and administering a local church or Christian ministry. It shares best practices from thriving churches, including APC Bangalore, which can be contextualized to your specific setting. This is a useful course for anyone considering serving in or starting their own church or ministry.
