Many youth pastors have been accused of mishandling money in their ministries; we don't need anymore added to the list. Here are a couple tips to keep you out of the "money pit" in your ministry:
Have someone else handle the money!
Have volunteer leaders be responsible for all cash.
When counting cash always make sure there are at least two volunteers.
Never let students count or handle money, why put temptation in front of them?
Accountability matters, keep great records.

I've had some pastors on staff who have admitted to mishandling funds and asked for accountability. Thanks for encouraging pastors to NOT work with money. I will be using these tips with my staff and making sure there are high levels of accountability. Nothing I haven't heard before, but a GREAT reminder. Thank you.
