Pastor's Financial Toolkit
What if taking care of your family wasn’t selfish – but spiritual? In The Pastor’s Financial Toolkit, host Scott Pearring reveals the quiet financial pressure crushing pastors across the country—and how to fight back. With real stories of ministry leaders finding hope, Scott shows why financial planning is an act of stewardship, not self-indulgence. You’ll learn how to unlock tax savings, stabilize your future, and finally breathe again—without sacrificing your calling. Whether you're a pastor, church board member, or ministry supporter, this show will change the way you think about money and ministry. Ministry shouldn't mean financial sacrifice – and it doesn’t have to. This podcast is a lifeline for pastors navigating the high cost of living, housing struggles, and burnout. In each episode, Scott walks alongside real pastors and churches that have found creative, biblical solutions—from forgivable home loans to donor-supported financial coaching. You’ll discover practical steps to restructure your finances, retain your staff, and build a more generous, sustainable ministry—starting today. Strong pastors build strong churches. But too many are quietly drowning in financial stress. The Pastor’s Financial Toolkit exists to change that. Backed by years of experience and a heart for the local church, Scott Pearring brings clarity to the complex and peace to the overwhelmed. With wisdom rooted in Scripture and strategy backed by experience, these episodes empower pastors to lead from a place of abundance – not anxiety. The toolkit is free. The mission is urgent. The time to start is now.
