Church Law & Tax Update Newsletter

Introducing the Church Law Podcast

We have some exciting news to share!

Church Law & Tax has long dreamed of producing a podcast devoted to church legal issues, and we are happy to announce that dream has now come true.

The Church Law podcast, hosted by attorney Erika Cole, is now available wherever you listen to podcasts, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon.

For more than 20 years, Cole has exclusively devoted her legal practice to helping churches, denominations, and nonprofit ministries. She knows the questions and challenges confronting congregations today, and so when she says this podcast offers “practical solutions for today’s leaders,” she’s able to deliver just that.

Check out the first two episodes, which cover the top legal issues confronting the church and legal issues in pandemic times, including vaccination questions and more.

Be sure to subscribe at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Amazon to ensure you never miss an episode. Plus, stay tuned for episodes covering church governance, pastoral succession, and more.
