    Your Guide to Preparing & Planning for a Church Building Program

    “One of life’s most painful moments comes when we must admit that we didn’t do our homework, that we are not prepared.”  ~ Merlin Olsen

    Few churches are equipped with the experience or training to lead the church through a building program in a manner that will ensure the best outcome.  In other words, what you don’t know will hurt you. Written by an experienced church building consultant, Preparing to Build is  a church building guide of nearly 200 pages of real-world practical information & church building guidelines – information to prepare for a church building program before you engage the architect, builder, or banker.
