Overview
By definition, a crisis could be anything that disrupts church life. It could be something internal—such as a budget shortfall—that only needs to be communicated to those within the church. Or it could be something as serious as a public scandal or allegations against the church, which will require dealing with the media—and, at times, responding to negative media coverage. This download will help you navigate through that communication process, whatever situation is hovering over your church.
