Praise for this book
"You will learn to not be content with surface treatments of destructive behavior. You will develop the ability to look beneath the surface to address the root causes. I enthusiastically commend this book to you."
Marshall Shelley, director of the doctor of ministry program at Denver Seminary, from the foreword
"Every pastor needs to read this book. Why? Because every minister is vulnerable. If you think you aren't-you're especially at risk. Don't Blow Up Your Ministry is grounded in biblical wisdom and practical experience. It's chock-full of real-life applications. If you are a leader in ministry, don't miss out on Michael MacKenzie's life-giving message."
Les and Leslie Parrott, authors of Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts
