How should church members determine what to pay their pastor? What should churches do when they can't afford to compensate their pastors properly? Too often questions like these go unanswered because they're too difficult or too awkward to address. Thanks to Pastoral Compensation 101, however, you can now learn not only the biblical philosophy on the matter, but also practical steps to caring for your pastor.

- how to select the compensation committee and have annual meetings

- why a pastoral effectiveness assessment is biblically supported
- ways to avoid harm caused by underpaying or overpaying a pastor
- types of benefits like insurance, housing allowance, retirement, and leave

Whether yours is a mega church or a small church with limited resources,
Pastoral Compensation 101 will prove indispensible in taking care of the pastor of your church.
