Leaders know they should plan for the future but are often uncertain of how to do it. Strategic planning can seem too "corporate." Is it right to use a technique from the business world in ministry? God is a master planner whose plans extend from one end of time to the other. We are created in his image to be like him including in our capacity to discern his will and to formulate plans to follow him. Dr. Saffold draws on the Bible to show that planning strategically is a thoroughly biblical discipline that when rooted in faith, prayer and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit can help a ministry realize God's direction and future. https://www.amazon.com/Strategic-Planning-Christian-Organizations-Direction/dp/B08C94SL7J/ref=sr_1_1?crid=15A0NLLS4CFZI&keywords=9798654857927&qid=1683226210&sprefix=9781476740676%2Caps%2C187&sr=8-1
