he Ministry of Money: A Treasurer's Role in the Mission of the Church by Keith Clark-Hoyos Finances are not just a function of the church - they are a reflection of the church's faithfulness. The Ministry of Money reframes the role of the treasurer as a sacred ministry of spiritual leadership, not just financial oversight. Designed for treasurers, finance committees, clergy, and church board members, this book offers both practical instruction and spiritual guidance for anyone responsible for stewarding the church's resources. Far too often, churches separate their financial systems from their spiritual discernment. Budgets are built in silos, reports are reduced to numbers, and leaders are left to navigate complex responsibilities without a clear path. This book changes that. Drawing from decades of experience in judicatory leadership and church consulting, Keith Clark-Hoyos equips readers to align financial stewardship with the church's mission, values, and God-given Calling. You will learn how to: Approach the treasurer's work as spiritual leadership Build financial transparency and trust Align financial decisions with your church's mission Prevent fraud and reduce financial risk Use budgets as testimony and ministry tools Understand fiduciary duty in a church context Improve your governance structures and internal controls Support long-term sustainability and succession planning Each chapter follows a consistent and accessible structure: Introduction: Real-world stories that ground the topic Theological Framing: Scripture-based reflection and spiritual insight Practical Application: Tools, templates, and strategies for faithful implementation Reflection Questions: Group or personal prompts to deepen learning This book includes real-life case studies from churches of varying sizes and settings. Readers also receive free access to the Effective Church Leadership Community (ECLC) - a growing digital library of sample policies, training webinars, governance templates, and financial tools. QR codes and links are included to support immediate application. Whether you're newly elected or long-serving, this book will help you lead with greater confidence, clarity, and alignment. It is also ideal for judicatory offices, ministry networks, and regional associations seeking to equip local leaders with a comprehensive training resource.
