Resources - William "Rick" Yount
The following items are available to NAPCE because of the generousity of our very own William "Rick" Yount. They are taken from two of his books: "The Discipler's Handbook: From Transmitting Lessons to Transforming Lives in Sunday School - 9th edition (1979 - ) 2006, " and from "Research Design & Statistical Analysis in Christian Ministry - 4th edition (1988 - ) 2006." These materials are published in Adobe Acrobat portable document format (pdf) to retain the document's original format and style. To view these you must have or download Adobe Acrobat Reader which is available free from Adobe.
