Three Flavors of XPastor Compensation Surveys
I was wondering, at what point in the interview process is it appropriate to talk about salary related issues? Do you have any advice in general in regards to salary conversations with churches? And finally, all of these churches would probably mean a significant move for us; do churches usually pay a portion or all of the moving expenses for a position like this? Thank you for your willingness to serve. I have gleaned a great deal from your website, which I feel like has better prepared me as I'm in this discernment phase.- Jim Hudson, XP at CrossWinds Church, Dublin, California
