The median age of pastors continues to get older. At Church Answers, we often speak with pastors who are contemplating retirement. Sam and Thom address the five most common questions we ask these pastors so that we can help them in their decision-making process.

1. What do you discern God is saying?

2. How much joy do you have in your current church?

3. Have many members hinted about your need to retire?

4. What is your financial condition?

5. What would you do after retirement?

The Economy Bible NTV, Seed Edition is an affordable edition of the Nueva Traducción Viviente (NTV). The NTV translation renders the message of the original texts of Scripture into clear, contemporary Spanish. The scholars who worked on it kept in mind the concerns of both translation theories: formal-equivalence and dynamic-equivalence. Their goal was to be both faithful to the ancient texts and eminently readable. The result is a translation that is both accurate and powerful. This Bible offers a low price, which makes it ideal to distribute to groups, give as a gift, or use as an outreach resource! This Bible is the perfect resource for churches and missional use.
