Online Resources To Reduce Legal Risk

By James F. Cobble

Sidebars to the article Managing the Changing Dynamics of Legal Risk and Ministry

Richard Hammar and James Cobble have developed the following Web sites to help pastors and church leaders respond to legal and risk-management concerns.

www.ChurchLawToday.com

ChurchLawToday.com combines strategic resources for leaders, comprehensive training programs, and a church safety center to create the most extensive legal, tax, and risk management support available to congregations today. Focused training and resources are provided for pastors, board members, church business administrators, treasurers, bookkeepers, youth and children directors, and volunteers who work in church programs. The site includes an online legal and tax library.

www.newminister.com

This site helps orient new ministers to key legal and tax issues that impact ministry.

www.screenchurchstaff.com

This site enables churches to conduct online screening of prospective workers and volunteers. The screening is done through ChoicePoint, the largest provider of employment verification services in the United States.
