Churches are vulnerable and unprotected because the policies, processes, and bylaws that protect the church are outdated and time consuming. Church leaders need a simple, affordable, expert way to protect their churches with good policies and procedures. Law and Church is a weekly podcast presented by The Church Law Group, and hosted by pastor and attorney Josh Bryant. We interview prominent church leaders from around the country including Dr. Thom Rainer, Jim Sheppard, and more to discover how we can better lead our churches in policy, process, and risk management while we strive to advance the gospel of Christ in a legally compliant and safe way.
Jesus prayed for unity in the church in John 17. Paul admonished Christians to resolve their disputes within the church rather than in court. I know of very few churches that are prepared to resolve disputes within the body.
1. Better unity requires better theology.
2. Better unity requires pastoral involvement.
3. Better unity involves outside help.
4. Get an arbitration contract.

1. Better churches fulfill their general duty to provide a safe workspace.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration cites employers who do not provide safe workspaces, including ergonomically effective office space.
2. Better churches train their employees on ergonomics because the more employees know the more likely they are to avoid harm.
Employees must know common musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and their signs and symptoms.
Employees must know the importance of reporting MSDs as soon as possible.
Employees must know how to report an MSD in your church.
Employees must know risk factors and activities associated with work-related MSDs.
3. Better churches require employees to work safely and provide the tools necessary to do so.
Require employees to stand up and walk around every hour.
Provide standing desks.
Provide proper typing equipment to avoid carpel tunnel.
Provide back and knee braces for heavy lifting, helmets and harnesses for work at heights, and other safety equipment.
