Sad Trends: Merit Pay for Ministry

A Chesapeake, Virginia church is going to a performance-based bonus system. Other churches are doing the same.

“…Rex Frieze, a church management consultant in Orlando, Fla., said churches such as Deep Creek are moving in the right direction. He argued for linking part of church paychecks to achieving “defined objectives.”“If it’s a music ministry, it might be numbers growth in the choir or performances. If it’s in the evangelism area, it could be the establishment of small groups” for Bible study, he said.”
