What IS an acceptable salary/compensation for a Pastor
What IS an acceptable salary/compensation for an Evangelist/Prophet/Teacher (minister without a local church)
Is it wrong for a Pastor of a 300-500 member church to make $100,000 plus the church buy their car and pay their mortgage?
What about a Pastor of a 100 member church who makes 50K plus house allowance and cars???
In the UPCI I'd say that our "top" Evangelists don't make more than $50k a year from preaching. Is that reasonable? should it be more?
I'd bet that the typical UPCI Evangelist does not make more than 30K.
Anyhow, what would be fair compensation???????

I say at least 10% of what the church brings in. I know many UPC pastors that does this. They do well.
