ISBN:0802478212

Read the textbook for understanding, Scriptures and information you might wish to quickly locate for outlining each of the 12 chapters, and for preparing the required questions and answers which are described below.

Prepare a detailed outline of each chapter in such a way that it can be useful for improving your ability to provide effective spiritual leadership in the church you now pastor and all future pastorates. Each chapter outline should be sufficiently thorough.

From each of the chapters of the book, prepare and show the answers to 5-10 important questions (true or false, fill in the blanks, matching, etc.) which you feel could be an appropriate comprehensive test of knowledge on the material in that part of the book. Be sure to how the page number where you found each question and answer.
