The official guide for the business of the IGA is ______.

• A. Parliamentary Guide for Churches
• B. Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised
• C. Church Constitution
• D. Bylaws

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is using a standardized system for running meetings. Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised provides the established framework for how meetings are conducted: how motions are made and debated, how votes are taken, who speaks, how to handle points of order, and how decisions are recorded. This makes it the go-to reference for conducting the official business of organizations like the IGA, promoting fairness, clarity, and consistency in proceedings.

Other options focus on governance documents or alternative guides rather than the recognized procedure for running meetings. A Church Parliamentarian-type guide isn’t the standard reference in most contexts, while a Church Constitution or Bylaws spell out structure and rules for the organization rather than the procedural method for debates and decisions.
