I do believe that we both know that--and it's good to be reminded of it also. But it would seem that there are some very misinformed people concerning the compensation of ministers at such events and IAM and I obviously wanted to set that straight.
Maybe Sam can explain himself....or even reveal whether or not his post about weddings/funerals and how we preachers are getting compensated for them was TIC.....
Truth is, I do not have a fee for either...if the family or couple asks me how much I charge I say, "I have no set fee, If you'd like to give me an honorarium then you may, but I do not require it nor do I set it." The only fee we have set for our church at weddings is for the sound man....I do not like to ask him to volunteer his time for these events...
