"Is Term Service Right for Us?" - Rev. Keith E. Boyer
This self-directed workshop is written by Keith E. Boyer on the topic of term service: "Is Term Service Right for Us?" It is not designed to "sell" term service but contains several ways to consider term service through four self-directed workshops.
