Managing Your Households Well: How Family Leadership Trains You for Church Leadership

Endorsements:

"A good and much-needed book on a subject that, though clearly laid out in Scripture, has been too often neglected and overlooked. Every pastor or prospective pastor will benefit from reading and considering it."
--Tim Challies, Blogger, www.challies.com

"Bettis offers accessible and attainable instruction from Scripture but not a low bar. He honors the nobility of pastoring and fathering and builds up the reader. The link between faithful shepherding in the home and in the church is logical, personal, and biblical."
--Barnabas Piper, Pastor, Immanuel Church, Nashville

"Chap Bettis does an outstanding job of highlighting one misunderstood but key component to biblical eldership. This book should be a required training tool for preparing future pastoral elders."
--Alexander Strauch, Author, Biblical Eldership

"A clear, careful, biblical, and balanced resource. The chapters that address, with charity and grace, the behavior of the pastor's children are worth the price of the book alone."
--Brian Croft, Executive Director, Practical Shepherding

"The book's concise approach and practical self-evaluation tools, including thoughtful questions for both leaders and their wives, make this an indispensable resource."
--Trent Casto, Senior Pastor, Covenant Presbyterian Church, Naples, Florida

"This is an essential book for your church's leadership team and should be a required text in pastoral studies at Christian colleges and seminaries."
--Daniel Darling, Director, Land Center for Cultural Engagement, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary
