Father Tim's Church Survival Guide

"â€œIf you have little tolerance for ecclesiastical blowhards; if youâ€™ve ever fantasized about implementing a clergy rating system (CRS); if youâ€™ve ever sought tips on surviving diocesan convention; if youâ€™ve ever tried to weasel your way out of pledging; then this book is for you,â€ says author Tim Schenck.

â€œMy take on church life isnâ€™t for everyoneâ€•clergy who take themselves too seriously will hate it. But know that it all comes out of a place of deep love for God and the Church. There are inevitably things that drive us nuts about such an imperfect (i.e., human) institution. Yet if we canâ€™t observe and comment on our own foibles weâ€™re left without much hope. And anyway if God doesnâ€™t have a sense of humor, Iâ€™m hosed.â€"
