Board Members & Church Leadership!
The members of the church charge the congregation and the shepherd of the church to be good stewards of the tithes that come into the storehouse to fulfill the church's vision and mission to the community.
The revenues for the church comes in from individual tithes, offering, fundraising events, pledges, and grant funding from organizations and individual donors.
Malachi 3:10 states Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,ā Says the LORD of hosts, āIf I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.
As the Board Members & Church Leadership of the church, you have to make dozens or even hundreds of decisions every week that involve finances, accounting, payroll, banking, and moreā¦
And it can be hard to know if you're doing the right thing and making a good decision.
Are you afraid that you might be making serious financial mistakes when it comes to managing the finances on behalf of the people you are called to serve?
The truth is a lot of the Board Members & Church Leadership I speak to struggle with running their church finances.
If that sounds like you, it's not your fault.

As an accountant, sharing honest, dependable, spirit-led advice and support for churches is my calling.
This is not a career, itās a call to serve. I serve wholeheartedly unto the Lord as a member of my church and I know my purpose is to do the same for your church finances.
In fact, I've discovered that most churches operate at a fairly high risk of making 7 financial mistakes that - when left unfixed - can lead to penalties from the IRS or the church's financial downfall.
The worst part is, making only one or two of these financial mistakes can have a huge impact on your bottom line and your charitable status with the IRS.
But don't worry - all of these mistakes can be fixed with the right help.
