Shownotes Transcript

In today’s episode, I am going to touch on why I believe it’s vital that accountability in the church NOT be optional and I will give you practical and tactical steps to help ensure accountability in 5 areas of your church.

Some ways that we can foster/create accountability within the church include:

  • Leadership Accountability

  • Congregational Accountability

  • Transparency and disclosure

  • Training and Education

  • Policies and Procedures

EVERY church office should have a Finance Policy & Procedure Guide. Here are just three areas that need to be addressed in a formal P & P guide:

Contributions

Check writing/bill payment

Reimbursement

As we all well know – Money Matters. And how we handle our finances ( and ESPECIALLY the Lord’s finances) says a LOT about the condition of our hearts.
