  10. Sandusky, Sexual Abuse, and Security in Your Church: Learn from Joe Paterno’s Mistake by Ed Stetzer.  I have never seen a respected leader fall so far, so fast.  It takes a lifetime to build a legacy but it can be lost in a moment in time.  Ed does an incredible job of telling Christian leaders what we should know about this sickening situation.
