Come out looking better and have more money in your pocket.

The Evaluator

The Hardy Group purposes to identify line items for reduction in your 2010 church budget. Here is how it works. The church submits income and expense reports from 2007-10 to The Hardy Group.

The Hardy Group will go through the budget line by line and find areas for reduction. The church agrees to pay The Hardy Group a fee ranging from $295 to $695 depending on the size of budget. In exchange The Hardy Group agrees to identify 10 times the fee in budget reductions; $2950 to $6950.

The Coach

Don’t you wish you could just preach, prepare to preach, pray, develop leaders and cast vision?  It kind of seems like that is what a senior pastor is supposed to do.

In the real world, however, one of the things pastors are charged with is the oversight of the church’s budget.  Even pastors with a good grasp on finance find the budget issue draining of the spiritual energy they need to lead the church.

Now there’s help.  The Hardy Group has developed the Church Budget Coach specifically for senior pastors.  We purpose to help you navigate the often treacherous waters of shrinking budgets and increased expectations.

Dick Hardy has done budgets at two mega churches, James River and Des Moines First. Now he is offering to help you.

Here are the benefits to you.

  1. Have at your disposal a seasoned ministry professional with over 30 years of experience.
  2. Find many of the needed funds for your priority ministries.
  3. Receive board training on how to do budgets to advance ministry.
  4. Receive board training on the nuances of salary adjustments.  Have Dick as your advocate.
  5. Talk candidly and in complete confidence with Dick about how much money you need to find in your budget.
  6. Receive a plan for your budget with Dick doing the work.
