Candid and down-to-earth, this book takes a close look at the issues, challenges, and dilemmas faced by those in their first pastorate. Offering nitty-gritty details and real-life examples, Rev. Angie Best-Boss provides practical advice on a wide range of topics, including researching your new church's local community, planning for finances and insurance, and tackling such pastoral responsibilities as officiating at weddings and funerals and making home and hospital visits. This small, but insightful, 93-page volume is a necessity for any seminary student or first-time pastor and a welcome resource for seminary professors as well.

Your Child's Teeth: A Complete Guide for Parents

The only comprehensive book on children's teeth written for adults.
Children's dental health involves much more than a toothbrush. Dental disease is the number one chronic childhood illness, and avoiding dental disease means paying scrupulous attention to our children's teeth.
In Your Child's Teeth, health writers Evelina Weidman Sterling and Angie Best-Boss team up with pediatric dentists and oral health experts to answer parents' many questions about children's teeth. Topics include: • how thumb sucking and pacifiers affect teeth • how to brush your young children's teeth • how to calm a child who is afraid of the dentist • how to help special needs children get proper dental care • how medical problems affect teeth • how fluoride rinses and dental sealants work • how a root canal is done • how to make the orthodontia decision
This book will help parents help children develop good dental habits for a lifetime of healthy teeth―from baby's first tooth to the young adult's shining smile.
