Summary
The guys are sitting in the local cigar shop talking through how to leave your ministry position, your local church, or your job in a manner that honors God and others. They were moved to chat through this in light of Thom Rainer's retirement from Lifeway. What are some things to keep in mind, and what are some things to do when leaving something important? As a help, the guys also walk us through Dr. Mark Dever's "If You're Thinking about Leaving a Church".
The NIV Biblical Theology Study Bible (general editor D. A. Carson) is the only study Bible built on Biblical Theology and will help you to marvel at the Big Story and savor the details of the history of redemption. Learn more at www.WhatIsBiblicalTheology.com
