I say it is no one's business if the pastor is financially blessed during his ministry and he should b eable to continue in ministry even if he finds himself blessed into the highest tax bracket....
This would be the same if there were any other secular job the pastor worked. If he worked the drive thru ar Wendy's it would no be the churches business what he made there. I think that it is fair for the church to inquire about where the fund that are coming in are going to. I.E. open books for 1 month out of the year etc. That way the people know where their money is going. But I am not to keen on showing how much a pastor makes. IMO
