Home / Inside the BCM/D / Financial & Legal

In order to support our vision of starting and strengthening great commission churches, we must effectively manage and creatively develop financial resources.

Being good Christian stewards requires that church business be conducted in a sound financial manner, operating within current legal constraints. It also requires that we share our resources and develop new financial sources as needed.

Our links, resources and events are provided to help churches, ministers and lay leaders obtain helpful financial and legal information only. We recommend that you consult with professionals regarding tax and legal advice for your particular situation.
