We are always excited about Big Ideas for Small Congregations, our hands-on book about congregational leadership, by Jane Dwinell and Ellen Germann-Melosh. For a limited time, we are offering a sale on printer's seconds. These are books that have the same great content and same inside pages, but their covers have suffered some superficial burnishing and have some less-than-pretty splotches on them. If you are willing to not judge a book by its cover, this is the deal for you! Order your copy here. 

We (Jane Dwinell and Dana Dwinell-Yardley) are also the authors of a blog, Common Sense! It's on (yet) another subject we're passionate about: independence and self-reliance for Vermont families. Common Sense is hosted by Vermont Commons. Read the blog here.
