Are Pastors Overpaid?

  • I want my pastors living comfortably so they don’t have to worry about some of life’s basic issues.
  • I want my pastors freed up so they can focus solely on hearing from God.
  • I want them to prosper. 
  • I want my pastors to be able to lead in generosity.
  • I want my pastors’ children to love Christians and the church so much they would think of doing nothing else but one day going into ministry themselves.  I don’t want them to think that the church is stingy and poor.
  • God shows favor to churches that bless their leaders.
  • Pastors are on call 24-7.
  • We need to hold pastors in high esteem.

Now a warning to people who think a specific pastor or pastors in general are overpaid – Never question how much a person makes until you first know how much that person gives away!!!  God blesses generous leaders.  

Church leaders, love your pastors.  Bless them.  Pray for them.  Treat their families with dignity and honor.  And give them a raise!

“How much of a raise?” you ask.  The answer is “MORE!”
