If your risk management policies are not living, active practices, then your risk management may need serious rehab!

If your people can't easily understand and apply your policies — intervention may be needed!

In this all-new CCN series, gain the preventative legal wisdom that will protect your ministry, your people and your church.

According to attorney David Middlebrook, expert in nonprofit and religious law, too many pastors and churches are ruined by simple ignorance.

Attorney David Middlebrook brings clarity to the topic of risk management and both your legal and spiritual duties:

"The law doesn't require you to be perfect. The bottom line is this: You owe a duty of reasonable care."

This month, CCN will define what it means to manage the risks at your church and outline the necessary steps to identify and address risky situations and behaviors.

You and your team will learn to manage R.I.S.K. through:

• Rating your risk
• Insuring your risk
• Strategies responding to risk
• Knowing how to communicate your policies

Middlebrook will also help you minimize critical concerns surrounding fire safety, the physical security of your people and child abuse.

Risk Management is so much more than a checklist — it's a vital, ongoing process to protect your people and your life's work!

To put it simply, Risk Management is peace of mind.
