- I can't attract good accountants or keep them
See How We Helped Andrew
They are able to help put a team together. From my perspective, the risk is less acutely on us as a church. They helped transition us to a number of great platforms that the staff actually enjoy using, so that we're able to have more time to be with people that we love.
