Project Management Guide: Building a Church Is a Labor of Love. This comes from my perspective as a volunteer engineering project manager for 25 years for several church projects running into millions of dollars. Here are some of the major themes covered in this book:
- Church and communal projects not only pose engineering challenges, but are a hearts-and-minds issue as well.
- How a church building project should be conceived, planned, and executed.
- Managing the part-time status of building committee members
- Contractor selection, stakeholder expectations, and the use of uncompleted facilities in concurrent operations
- The technical and spiritual qualifications of project officials
- Options for funding church projects
- Strategies for preserving church infrastructural investments
The book is a vital tool for engineers and project managers, church and organisational leaders alike. Some sound bites from the book:
"The Bible is as much a vital document for managing a church project as are the requisite engineering and technical specifications." 
"Building an engineering facility for God is as sacred a duty as preaching from the pulpit."
"Pastors must avoid the temptation to overly 'spiritualise' the physical aspects of church work."
"God is not so poor that His projects have to be offered to unbelievers for funding."
"No facility should be handed over without a documented operating and maintenance philosophy."
