5.0 out of 5 stars Every minister, budget committee member, and church member should read this book
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2015
Verified Purchase
This is an excellent, easy to read book, for ministers, budget committees, and members of churches. Art does a good job in taking complicated information and making it usable for a minister or church to plan on how to take care of retirement and meeting the financial needs of a pastor. A minister does not need to be tempted because he does not have enough money to meet basic needs.

One tip I will share is that even though an ordained minister must pay 15.3 percent of social security and Medicare, he can have it deducted from his regular pay as federal income tax so he does not have to pay a large sum each quarter. This approach makes it much easier for a minister to make his social security and Medicare payments.

This book could be 10 times as long and still not cover all of the facets of this topic. However, what you have is an easy to read overview of the topic that will get 90% of questions answered and point you in a good direction for the other 10%.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for all Pastors
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2016

This book is helpful for both new pastors and those serving on pastoral compensation committees within their church. It is written mainly for pastors themselves. Art Rainer provides straightforward encouragement to pastors to be careful with their personal finances and to set the example for their church, something that can only help both pastors and churches alike. Written with firsthand experience which provides immediate credibility. If you have a pastor fairly new to the ministry, I highly recommend you buy him a copy of this book.

Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2015

The information in this book is good, but it is VERY basic in what it offers in guidance for the a minister and how to best utilize the tax benefits that a minister can receive. It has some good words on why it is important for a minister to be good with their finances. In the end it wasn't want I was really looking for. If you need very basic guidance on how a minister should handle their finances this will be beneficial. If you are already responsible and looking for guidance about the specific tax issues a minister faces maybe pick up Zondervan's tax guide.

This book discusses in detail the areas of finance that a minister is forced to deal with on a daily basis. Must read for all ministers. I am not a senior minister, but an associate of sorts and found this book very eye opening.
