Distinctives
Thank you for taking the time to consider using
this handbook. The way we manage our people in Christian organisations
and churches should be distinctive. Changing times and new legislation
make it imperative for us to understand and manage our ethos and people-management
practices. Distinctives will help
you to work through the spectrum of practical issues in managing staff
and volunteers from a biblical perspective.
This pack assumes little knowledge of Personnel Management and although larger organisations may find it a helpful check, it is primarily designed for:
- churches who employ a number of staff members
- small to medium-sized Christian organisations
The contents are designed
to reflect various aspects of working with people. Each section provides
an introduction to the issue and highlights the distinctively Christian
aspects, before working through some of the practical issues involved.
At the end of each section there is a checklist for action and some
helpful pointers for further investigation and sources of help.

Due to the unique nature of national legislation, Distinctives is aimed at Churches and organisations based in the UK. However, many of the principles will be applicable elsewhere.
