When I first began attending church in 1978 as an angry 12-year-old from a broken home, I knew the people at Acworth United Methodist Church had something I wanted.  And I wanted it to the innermost core of my being.  I eventually came to understand why the local church, as Bill Hybels says, is the hope of the world.  It is because it was at a local church where I found my hope in the person of Jesus Christ.

Churches are a BIG deal.  They must be led well because the stakes are too high if they are not.  This week’s Top 10 list will give you the tools and insights needed to better lead your local church.  Bookmark these and pass them along to your staffs.
